The History of the Maccabiah, a quadrennial International Jewish multi-sport event, dates back to 1912 and the Games of the V Olympiad. == History ==
At the end of the 19th century, Jews in Europe weren't allowed to take part in official athletic competitions and were forbidden membership in sports associations. The vision for the Maccabiah started with Yosef Yekutieli; a Russian Jew that immigrated to Eretz Yisrael in 1909 with his family. In 1912 Yekutieli obtained a booklet about the Stockholm Olympics that held in 1912. The booklet included many Jewish athletes who participated in the name of their country and the medals they won. This booklet was the origin of Yekutieli's idea: To help athletes in Eretz Yisrael participate in the Olympics.〔 With the start of World War I, Yekutieli was recruited into the Turkish army. Upon his return to Mandatory Palestine in 1918, Yekutieli returned to his job at the Eretz Yisrael Office. For almost a decade Yekutieli thought on ways to make his idea a reality, however, it wasn't until 1928 when Yekutieli presented his Jewish Olympics proposal to Menachem Ussishkin, the Chairman of the Executive Committee of the Jewish National Fund.〔〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.maccabiworld.org/nconfigout.asp?psn=275&tcat=67 )〕〔 As a way to promote interest, Yekutieli proposed that the First Maccabiah should take place in time for the 1800th anniversary of the Bar Kochba Rebellion.〔〔 Coincidentally, at about the same time, the Maccabi World Union was trying to come up with a way to allow athletes living in the British Mandate of Palestine to participate in important international sporting events; a way that would also act as a form of international recognition of Palestine as the Jewish National Home.〔〔 In 1929 Yekutieli went to Czechoslovakia to present his proposal in front of the ''Maccabi World Congress'' where his proposal was met with great enthusiasm by the Jewish Community in the diaspora and the Jewish population in the Eretz Yisrael.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.maccabiusa.com/history.htm )〕 The Maccabi Federation formed an organizing committee for the Maccabiah. The first Maccabiah, called the ''Maccabiada'' ((ヘブライ語:המכביאדה)), was organized with the help of many different sports organization, including the recently created Israeli football association, and devoted volunteers. Many of the tasks such as improvising sports sites and mobilize financial resources were driven by volunteers. Local communities took it upon themselves to raise the money to build a stadium in Tel Aviv, the Maccabiah Stadium. The last obstacle the committee had to overcome was the High Commissioner for Palestine: Sir John Chancellor. While Chancellor admired some Zionist leaders, his general attitude towards Jews was negative.〔〔 Chancellor refused to approve the Maccabiah.〔
