Team Stamford aims to include as many teens as possible, ages 12-16, as of July 31, 2006, for individual sports and ages 13-16 for team sports. This is an exciting annual, week-long, international, multi-sport, athletic, and cultural event that will unite over 1,000 Jewish teenage athletes from around the world. This is truly a once in a lifetime experience!

The Athletic Events are:

Baseball – Basketball – Bowling – Dance – Golf –

If you cannot compete in any of these sports but want to be a part of the Games, then why not
be a Star Reporter and write articles about the daily events?

Tryouts for team sports will be held from January through February. Please contact Ernest
Lamour at elamour@stamfordjcc.org for information regarding dates, times and locations of tryouts. There are no tryouts for individual sports.

Another exciting part of being part of Team Stamford is you and your family will host at least two visiting athletes for the week of the games.
