Philadelphia Battles in Maccabi Soccer Games

Three Philadelphia teams took on out-of-town teams, winning just one.

The first day of Maccabi Games soccer contests was surely hampered by rain. With many fields being water logged, only a few fields could be used. Attempting to get all the games played, games were limited to 30 minutes. We visited the to focus on some soccer action.

We photographed the Philadelphia Blue Girls team playing against Toronto, who won by a score of 2-0. Then we aimed at two boys games. The first was the Philadelphia Blue Boys team, which defeated LA Milken 3-1. Then we took in Orange County, CA vs. Philadelphia Blue, which was won by Orange County 3-0.  The gallery gives you a sideline view of game action.
