Be Part of Something Bigger:
The JCC Maccabi Games^® 2026

Kansas City & Toronto | August 2–7, 2026

Since 1982, the JCC Maccabi Games® have offered Jewish teens a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to come together through sports, culture, and community. In 2026, Kansas City and Toronto will host this global celebration of Jewish pride, athleticism, and friendship—and Team Richmond wants you on the roster.

More than a sports competition, the JCC Maccabi Games are a movement—designed to:

• Inspire Jewish pride through unity, tradition, and identity

• Promote fitness and healthy competition in a supportive, team-first environment

• Build lifelong friendships with Jewish teens from around the world

• Instill core values like sportsmanship, integrity, and tikkun olam (repairing the world)

With thousands of Jewish teens, families, and coaches participating each year, the JCC Maccabi Games are the largest Jewish youth event in the world—a place where young athletes grow not just as competitors, but as leaders and community builders.

From swimming to soccer, baseball to basketball, dance to eSports, there’s a place for every kind of athlete. And while the medals are great, the memories, friendships, and sense of belonging are what truly last.
