PAN AMERICAN MACCABI GAMES!
The Pan American Maccabi Games are held every four years in one of the Latin America countries. This year they were in South America and Adam Hatchuel (Year 10) was selected as part of the Junior Basketball team which comprised Under 16 Boys from Sydney and Melbourne.
After playing five games in their pool, they had won three games and then had the opportunity to play off for the Bronze medal against Brazil. They won 66 - 60.
What a wonderful experience!
Congratulations, Adam, and we wish you continued success!
