Gulf War's Effect Felt
By Detroit Maccabians
RICHARD PEARL
Staff Writer
T
he war in the Persian
Gulf has thus far
frustrated efforts by
the Detroit Maccabi Club to
form a boys soccer team to
compete, as special guests,
in the European Youth Mac-
cabi Games scheduled July
11-18 in Marseilles, France.
And caught in the middle
in trying to plan this once-in-
a-lifetime trip is Alan
Horowitz, sports coordinator
for the Maccabi club.
"They (the Europeans)
need a commitment over
there, but parents over here
are finding it difficult to
decide whether to let their
kids go" because of the war,
Horowitz said. "The problem
is, we can't wait until June
to decide."
Detroit, which was host to
the Jewish Community
Centers North American
Maccabi Youth Games last
summer, was invited by
English Maccabians to send
a soccer team of 12-to-14-
year-old boys to represent
the city as special guests in
the European Games. The
invitation is the first for the
Detroit club and the only one
issued to a team from the
Western Hemisphere.
The trip will be 12 days
long, because the Detroiters
first will be the guests of the
English Maccabians for five
days. The boys will spend
seven days in Marseilles.
A tryout for the special
soccer team is scheduled for
4 p.m. Feb. 3 at the Maple-
Drake JCC Building.
"We've got a nucleus of
about six kids so far who
seem definitely interested,
including two who were too
young to have participated
in last year's Youth Games,"
Horowitz said.
Recalling registration for
last summer's Games,
Horowitz noted, "By
January 1990, we had team
deposits of $500 each. And
May was the paperwork
deadline, even though the
Maccabi Games weren't un-
til August."
Another overseas trip an-
nounced earlier by the club
would have taken a Detroit
boys soccer team to England
and Scotland as guests of
three Maccabi clubs there.
But it "went by the wayside
due to lack of interest," said
Horowitz.
An East Coast trip for
teenagers up to age 18 is still
being planned, he said.
Scheduled for 14 days in late
June and early July, the
Detroiters are to visit Wash-
ington, D.C., New Jersey,
Pittsburgh, Cleveland and
possibly Toronto, staying in
the homes of club members
in each city.
It, too, is in reciprocation
for the hosting of teens from
those cities by the Detroiters
last summer. At present,
only a girls softball team has
indicated interest.
"I can't believe we can't
get a boys' basketball team
together to go," said
Horowitz, noting that such a
team would have "anybody
of high school age,' in-
cluding former Maccabians.
And there also are the re-
gional Maccabi Youth
Games next August, for
which Detroit-team tryouts
will be held on Sundays in
March. Boys', and girls'
teams will be formed in
basketball, softball, tennis,
swimming and track and
field, plus a co-ed racquet-
ball team and a boys' soccer
team.
Times and dates of the
tryouts will be announced.
The regional Youth Games
are scheduled for Cleveland;
Wayne, N.J., and Omaha. ❑
