The children in the Maccabi Tel Aviv Youth Department spend more of their time training designed to improve their skills on the pitch and during match action. Improving technique and physical presence, the Yellow-and-Blue youth department also puts a special emphasis on personal growth as people as well.

This past Sunday, April 17th a group of children from Tayibe were hosted at Kiryat Shalom as they participated in a joint practice session with the Under-15 squad and their coach Kfir Alfonte. The children played a friendly match and afterwards mingled together and got to know each other on and off of the field of play.

A big surprise awaited the children as Haviv Ohayon, the First Team and Under-19 keeper joined the action and also assisted on a couple of goals. The Under-15 players’ parents organized a snack afterwards along with the Tayibe parents and the Maccabi Youth Department participants gave out mugs that had the following printed on them: “Maccabi Tel Aviv & Tayibe Youth for Coexistence” with the goal achieved after a fun day at Kiryat Shalom.
