Represent Maccabi USA at 15th Pan American Maccabi Games in Argentina this December

Maccabi USA is proud to announce the 15th Pan American Maccabi Games taking place in Buenos Aires, Argentina from December 27, 2023 to January 5, 2024! This is a fantastic opportunity for Jewish athletes to connect and play in a competitive international tournament.  

The Pan American Maccabi Games are held every four years in one of the Latin America countries and is sponsored by the Latin American Maccabi Confederation. Participants include athletes representing North, Central and South America, Israel and other countries throughout the Diaspora. One of the main missions is to perpetuate and preserve the American Jewish community by encouraging Jewish Pride, strengthening Jewish bonds, and by creating a heightened awareness of Israel and Jewish Identity. More than 4,000 participants from across Latin America and the Diaspora will participate in the Games. 

Maccabi USA is expecting to take a delegation of over 500 athletes and volunteers to the Games, with more than 30 sports to be contested in the U-16, U-18, Open and Masters divisions. The Games will feature both an Open and U-16 tournament for Women’s Field Hockey - and there are still spots on the rosters for interested players. Eligibility for the U-16 team will be for athletes born between 2007 and 2009, and the Open team is for athletes born in 2006 or earlier. Those interested should apply by clicking here.
