Some members are accomplished sportspersons who have competed at the Maccabiah, some still compete in their chosen sports, while others are ardent sports fans.<\/p>\n<p>Maccabi SA, like its counterparts across the world, is driven by a powerful spirit of community service and a desire to help\u00a0people of all ages get\u00a0active, whether it\u2019s in social, recreational or competitive sport.<\/p>\n<p>In order to optimise its service to the community, Maccabi SA undertook a review of its constitutional and governance structures, to bring them in line with current organisational needs and best practice. A new Memorandum of Incorporation (MOI) was officially adopted in 2019, following an 18-month process of review, discussion and consultation.\u00a0In accordance with the MOI, a new Board of Directors was elected at the AGM on 3 November 2019 and since then members have been rotated on an annual basis.<\/p>\n<p>As of September 2024, Farrell Cohen has been appointed to the Board to replace Ashley Kotzin. We thank Ashley for his valuable contribution and support. Farrell recently served as Maccabi SA&#8217;s Head of Delegation to the 2022 Games, which was his 5th Maccabiah.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Maccabi South Africa is managed and staffed by a dedicated team of volunteers and one full time employee, comprising skilled administrators, managers and coaches who each bring extensive knowledge and experience acquired in their professional lives to the organisation.
