Siblings on the Sidelines

by | Nov 5, 2026 | What’s Happening

This winter, while their siblings compete in the Simon Family JCC Youth Basketball League, children can take part in Siblings on the Sidelines with the Tidewater Shinshinim in The Zone on the Sandler Family Campus. Through lively Israeli games and creative activities, participants can play, learn, and connect in a warm, welcoming setting.

Taking place during most basketball practices and games throughout the season, Siblings on the Sidelines requires no RSVP. It’s an opportunity for younger children to experience a bit of Israeli culture, make new friends, and stay active while supporting their siblings on the court.
