Hapoel Tel Aviv, a professional soccer team in Israel, is bringing its programming to the Bender JCC! Take advantage of this opportunity to join a Hapoel Tel Aviv Shavim Team, a fully inclusive team where players of all abilities are united on one field. “Shavim” means “equals” in Hebrew.

The Bender JCC is creating one Hapoel Tel Aviv Shavim team for middle schoolers and another for high schoolers (through age 18). Team members do not have to be experienced soccer players to join! The goal of the program is to offer an opportunity to exercise, socialize, and feel the camaraderie of a true team experience.

For more information, including dates and times, please reach out to Maytal Regev at mregev@benderjccgw.org. Players are welcome to drop in and may register at any time! There is no cost to join the league.

Please note that players will not have a designated 1:1 during this program, meaning that the support and coaching will be group rather than individually-based. If you would like to discuss how to make this program successful for your child or have other questions, please contact Kate Falls at (301) 348-3767 or kfalls@benderjccgw.org.
