A Tradition of Excellence
Creating Opportunities for All Jewish Wrestlers
The mission of Maccabi USA Wrestling, aligning with the broader organization, is to "Build Jewish Pride Through Sports". It strengthens Jewish identity, community, and connection to Israel through wrestling-specific athletic, educational, and cultural experiences, including national tournaments and international competition, notably the World Maccabiah Games
The vision of Maccabi USA Wrestling is to foster a world where sports serve as a galvanizing force to strengthen Jewish pride, connection, and community. Specifically, they aim to develop and promote wrestling within Jewish communities, using it to build a, "brotherhood and sisterhood" that connects athletes to their heritage and to Israel. We aim to create a community that is inclusive to Jewish wrestlers of all backgrounds and to enhance the Jewish wrestling community.
“The World Maccabiah Games is an incredible vehicle to bring Jewish people from different cultures together, united in faith and athletics."
- Rob Prebish, Maccabi USA Wrestling Coach
