There was so much happening at the Australian Maccabiah Games precamp in Netanya from July 7-12, as the athletes prepared to begin their matches and competitions from as early as July 13 for sports including cricket, football, tennis and golf. Gradually upping training each day to acclimatise to the heat was key, but there was also time to enjoy tours, the beach and mingling with teammates from across Australia.
