The World Maccabiah and Brazil's Participation in this 2022 Edition
Abstract
The World Maccabiah is a sporting event that takes place since 1932, bringing together Jews from different countries in Israel. Brazil has participated in all editions since 1953. In 2022, during this competition’s 90th anniversary and according to the Macabi Brasil website and some information referenced in the researched sources the Brazilian Jewish community sent its largest contingent of players. The study aimed to elucidate such a remarkable participation. For this purpose, information was collected from the app created for the event (Maccabiah 21), the official website of the event, and other sources such as articles and archives housed in the Hemeroteca Nacional Digital. Brazil participated with 493 athletes divided into 15 sports, ranking 5th overall.
