Maccabi Quebec The Maccabiah Games, a prominent international sports competition held every four years in Israel, i

Europe, The Americas, Austraila, USA and Israel are homes to world class sports events bringing the best Jewish athletes from all over the world to meet with and compete against other triumphant Jewish athletes. To some, this will be a stage in a long, successful athletic career. To others, this will be the highlight of their athletic journey. To all, this will be a life-changing point in their pe

rsonal Jewish journeys, a journey to reinforcing their Jewish pride, to cultivating support for Israel and to becoming our future leaders. The games take place every four years in their respective regions, with the Maccabiah Games in Israel being the largest and the point of pride for the organization. The Maccabiah Games is one of the top three gatherings of athletes in the world. Over 8,000 athletes proudly represent over 60 countries and compete for Gold, Silver and Bronze medals. The superior values and standards of the Maccabiah competitions lead to the Maccabi World Union being recognized by the International Olympic Committee as "an international sports federation of Olympic standing” in 1960. The only other worlds sports body so honoured was the International Students' Sports Organization. We invite you to become part of the Maccabi movement and participate in our games, as an athlete, coach, supporter, sponsor or volunteer, come and become one with the Maccabi Canada family and help realize the Canadian Jewish Athlete’s dream.

Montreal's own Haylie Goldsmith! Good luck Haylie!

We are delighted to present some Q&As to some of our athletes representing Maccabi Canada at the 21st Maccabiah Games.

Meet Haylie Goldsmith who will be representing Maccabi Canada as a part of the gymnastics team.

🤸‍♂️ When did you first start practicing gymnastics?
I started competitive gymnastics when I was 5 years old and have been doing it ever since. I was chosen to try out for the competitive team at Wimgym Gymnastics Club and have been part of that team for the past 11 years.

🤸‍♂️ Who was/is your athletic role model and why?
Evandra Zlobec, who also happens to be my best friend, is my role model. Her perseverance and commitment to gymnastics inspires me. Ever since we were little, she has continued to show everyone what she can do! She is an incredible person, an amazing friend and an outstanding gymnast.

🤸‍♂️ What has been your personal or professional highlight as an athlete?
For sure, my international competitions like Gymnix and my podium finishes, especially on beam and floor, have been the highlights.

🤸‍♂️ Why do you want to be a member of Team Canada and compete at the Maccabiah Games?
I love gymnastics and I love competing. The opportunity to represent Canada as a gymnast is incredible and I am so happy to be able to do this. It has been something I have been working towards. Being able to travel to Israel is awesome - it will be my first time!

🤸‍♂️ What are you most looking forward to about the Maccabiah Games?
As a Gymnast and a Jewish athlete - travelling with the Canadian delegation is a dream come true! I am excited to travel and see all the sites, to meet and get to know other athletes and of course, win some medals!

Go Team Canada!!! 🇨🇦🤸‍♂️🇨🇦🤸‍♂️🇨🇦🤸‍♂️
