2025 MACCABIAH GAMES 

APPLICATIONS FOR TEAM AUSTRALIA ATHLETES ARE NOW OPEN

We are delighted to announce the launch of the Australian Delegation to the 22nd Maccabiah Games (M25), which will take place from 30 June –14 July 2026 in Israel.

Maccabiah Games scheduled for 2025 was postponed due to the 12 day war June 2025, and now, we are excited to resume plannig for this incredible global event.

Every four years, the Maccabiah Games bring together athletes, coaches, managers, and supporters from across the world to compete in Israel, uniting to celebrate Jewish heritage, sportsmanship, and camaraderie.

For over 90 years, the Maccabiah Games have demonstrated the power of sport to unite and inspire the Jewish community worldwide. 

The values of Maccabi Australia are embedded in the history of this global event:

·       Teamwork

·       Community

·       Volunteerism

·       Respect

Athletes will have the opportunity to compete at the highest level, testing their limits and striving for excellence. The Maccabiah Games are more than just world-class competition; they are a gateway to a cultural experience. Participants, volunteers, and supporters are provided with a chance to connect with Israel and experience a journey that goes beyond sport.

Whether you are an athlete, volunteer, coach, or supporter, M25 offers a rare opportunity to represent your country, compete on the world stage, forge lifelong friendships, whilst proudly wearing the green and gold on a global stage. This is an experience that blends sport with connection and meaning.

We invite you to CONNECT AS ONE with Team Australia, Jewish athletes from around the globe, and stand proudly in solidarity with our brothers and sisters in Israel.

We look forward to having you with us on this historic journey. Stay tuned for more updates, and feel free to reach out if you have any questions or need further information.
