Jewish News junior review – week eleven
Sunday afternoon saw the latest round of action played in the Jewish News Maccabi Junior Football…
In one tie from the Cup, HMH Tel Aviv won through via a penalty shoot-out as they beat Alyth Belsize Black 4-2 on spot-kicks, after the sides played out a 0-0 draw.
In the League, Hendon United Blue moved up into second spot thanks to a 5-0 win over NWLJ, which saw Arye Birnbaum claim a hat-trick. Brady Maccabi edged past Hendon United White, beating them 1-0.
**The sides have now completed their first set of fixtures. The Division has now been split in to two divisions. Each team will play each other team in its new division twice more before the end of the season. The points gained in the first part of the season have been added already to the new Divisions. Some new fixtures are already on the spread sheet starting from next week.**
In the first round of the Cup, HMH Eilat are safely through after they beat Hendon United Green 2-1.
In the League, HMH Netanya went clear at the top of the table thanks to a 5-2 win at Brady Maccabi White.
HMH Negev moved to within a point of second spot after they beat HMH Negev 8-1, while a further two points behind them are Alyth Belsize, who beat NWLJ 11-0, thanks in no small part to hat-tricks from Ethan Zybutz and Avi Rubinstein. Jamie Isaacs scored twice, with Harry Leibling-Blitz, Jonah Rose and Oli Weiner also on target.
Brady Maccabi Blue also got into double figures, as they claimed their third league win of the season with a 10-2 triumph over HMH Tiberias.

Engaging
Being a community platform means so much more than producing a newspaper and website. One of our proudest roles is media partnering with our invaluable charities to amplify the outstanding work they do to help us all.
Celebrating
There’s no shortage of oys in the world but Jewish News takes every opportunity to celebrate the joys too, through projects like Night of Heroes, 40 Under 40 and other compelling countdowns that make the community kvell with pride.
Pioneering
In the first collaboration between media outlets from different faiths, Jewish News worked with British Muslim TV and Church Times to produce a list of young activists leading the way on interfaith understanding.
Campaigning
Royal Mail issued a stamp honouring Holocaust hero Sir Nicholas Winton after a Jewish News campaign attracted more than 100,000 backers. Jewish Newsalso produces special editions of the paper highlighting pressing issues including mental health and Holocaust remembrance.
Easy access
In an age when news is readily accessible, Jewish News provides high-quality content free online and offline, removing any financial barriers to connecting people.
Voice of our community to wider society
The Jewish News team regularly appears on TV, radio and on the pages of the national press to comment on stories about the Jewish community. Easy access to the paper on the streets of London also means Jewish News provides an invaluable window into the community for the country at large.
We hope you agree all this is worth preserving.
