Maccabi Foundation ensuring veteran fans are not alone

The Maccabi Tel Aviv FC Foundation is continuing to play its part to help the community during these past weeks of lockdown, and on Sunday it began another project, in partnership with business partner “Hayevuan” and 150 special holiday gift packages have been prepared for distribution to the club’s veteran supporters aged over 70.

The over-70s are our most venerable supporters. They have followed us for decades, and now they are forced to stay at home in order to stay healthy and see out the coronavirus crisis from a safe distance.

On Monday morning, Maccabi supporters groups “Maccabi Fanatics” and “Ahim Lasemel” joined some of the players from the first team and the youth team. They collected the packages and began to distribute them at the entrance of the homes of their intended recipients, ensuring that Maccabi’s veteran fans are never forgotten.

Why did Micha choose No. 15?

Youth Academy head sends Passover greetings

With the club under lockdown as we head into the holiday, Guy Zukerman, the manager of Maccabi Tel Aviv’s Youth Academy, shares his Passover message to the staff, the players, and their parents:

Dear players, parents, coaches and Academy staff,

It’s hard to comprehend the situation that has been forced on us during this past month. The inability to train and play football, the game we love, is very difficult but it is very important at this time to maintain everybody’s health, and stay home and follow instructions.

It is heartwarming to watch as players of all ages work on their fitness in their home environment. I hope the situation will improve quickly and that we will be able to get back into training and playing, and most important, to be able to see you all during the week and on Saturdays.

I take this opportunity to wish you all a healthy and joyous holiday and hope that we may swiftly get back to our regular lives and to playing football.
