User:Maccabi Games 1969

Maccabi games 1969. It's amazing how many athletes go without recognition although they were at one time the best in the world in their sport. One great example of that is Greco-roman Wrestler Itzhak (Jack) Azoulay. Itzhak Azoulay was gold medalist in the 8th Maccabi Games of 1969 in the sport of Greco-roman Wrestling. Itzhak Azoulay came to Israel as a young teen with a movement to build the state of Israel. Without the guidance or parents or family nearby he continued to train and go on to win the 8th Maccabi games and be Israeli Champion for many years. His last championship was in 1973.תותי
