This week the Youth Division of Maccabi Tel Aviv Football Club is holding educational activities in co-operation with Beit Terezin, whose museum was established some 40 years ago for the purpose of perpetuating the memory of the prisoners of the Theresienstadt ghetto who perished in the Holocaust. Nine groups in Maccabi Tel Aviv's Youth Division will participate in the activities, from Children's Team B up to the Youth Teams. The subject of the activities is "Liga Terezin – Sport and Youth in the ghetto of Theresienstadt", in memory of the football league that was established in the Terezin ghetto during the Second World War. Each Youth Division group will receive an hour and a half lecture and see an exhibition and film clips about the Terezin League that operated in the Theresienstadt ghetto in what is now the Czech Republic during the years 1942-1944.
