Otherwise known as the Jewish Olympics, this sporting extravaganza also takes place every 4 years.
This year sees the 20th Maccabiah and quite possibly the biggest ever, with some 10,000 athletes and 22,000 fans from more than 80 countries. The opening ceremony will take place in Jerusalem’s Teddy Stadium and the competitive matches (Open, Junior, Masters and Paralympics) will be held in several cities.
