Israel

Euroleague basketball champions, Maccabi Electra Tel Aviv, were welcomed to Cleveland with open arms for 3 days full of activity in October 2014. The team held an open practice, photo op, and skills clinic, where kids ages 8-14 learned from the champion players themselves. Then, a nearly sold-out crowd of 20,000+ came out to the Q to cheer on Maccabi Electra Tel Aviv and the Cleveland Cavaliers in the first preseason game.
