Youth

The Makkabi Germany Youth (MDJ) board was elected in 2019 with a complete success by the young athletes from their own ranks. With a team of 7 people, 5 represented the board and two more represented the auditors. The board of our junior staff at Makkabi Germany was founded to give the young athletes the feeling of being able to have a say in the future and to take the future world of sport at Makkabi Germany into their own hands as young people. The MDJ board creates a space for the young athletes in which they have the opportunity to express their interests, to live out their hobbies alongside sport and to get involved in the design of the supporting program. Furthermore, the board involves as many athletes as possible to represent the MDJ on the social media channels and at events. At the same time, founding a company involves a great deal of responsibility. Various departments related to education and sports were established. Their task is to create offers and events or projects for the athletes in the respective subject areas. Several events have already been organized and carried out. In addition, the collaboration and relationship with our various other partners is increasing. Those responsible for the MDJ try to set interreligious and intercultural accents in sport and thus open doors for cooperation that may not have been so obvious before.
