Jewish Sports Journalism

Do you know the nine Jewish players in the NFL? That was one of the questions I saw at a very important website for those with a general interest in aspects of Jewish culture that encourage participation at a high level in sport by Jewish men and women. Who are the two NBA players who could be celebrating a most important festival and holiday right now. Passers at Passover: who are they?

The Jewish Sports Review claims that it is recognized as the foremost authority of Jewish athletes in the world!  For just an annual subscription of $36.00 (or $60.00 for 2 years) you get 6 fascinating issues each year.

Like they say on the home page of the website www.glendobson.com/jsr/

“Be our stringer! If you know of any professional, college, or outstanding high school Jewish athletes, please let us know! Contact shel@jewishsportsreview.com.”

And you will get all this too, as the Magazine:

Selects Jewish All-America College teams in Baseball, Football, Basketball, Softball, Soccer and Lacrosse;

Has all-time lists for Jewish players in Major League Baseball, Pro Football, Pro Basketball, and the NHL;

Covers international athletic events such as the Summer and Winter World Olympics, and World Championships in various sports;

Selects High School Jewish All-America teams in Basketball, and names the top graduating Jewish high school athletes;

Covers the World Maccabiah Games;

Covers all “Minor” sports;

Covers Israeli sports; and

Verifies the Jewish background of every athlete covered.

This is a must read for all who are truly interested in the role of Jews in the World Wide Sporting Life.
