Tel Aviv, Israel Sunday, December 12th, on a rainy and stormy day when most people would not venture out from their homes, Bring It In - Israel Fellows Sam Forman, Gabi Remz from Young Judaea Yearcourse, and Meagan Newman from Career Israel, showed tremendous resolve and dedication not only coming to Bialik School in Tel Aviv, but bringing with them an impressive amount of positive energy and enthusiasm. In the near hurricane like conditions, Fellows changed buses two times in order to show up at Bialik School in Southern Tel Aviv to coach children from the after school program. Bialik is an amazing school made up of children from around the world, many of which our children of refugees from Darfur and Western Africa.

The children were extremely excited to see the coaches. BII Fellow Gabi Remz started the day off leading the children through a warmup that consisted of jogging in place, high knees, and jumping. Bring It In - Israel in field training days consist of teaching Israeli children English, teamwork, listening, and communication. BII Fellow Sam Forman ran a defensive warm up with quick feet and 360 jumping that had the children smiling and laughing. BII Fellow Meagen Newman lead group call and response stretching. The children were then split up into three teams to partake in basketball drills and relay races. According to Bring It In - Israel Head Coach David Lasday, "The Fellows were incredible. First coming out in terrible weather conditions, and then being able to work within a classroom, in a small space. They were truly dynamic."
