New Bobsled Team for Israel

Archived from JewishSports.com, March 14, 2003

One Canadian and two Americans have established a two-man bobsled team that they hope will compete for Israel in the next winter Olympics.  David Greaves of Winnipeg, and Aaron Zeff and John Frank, both of San Francisco, have received authorization from the Israeli Olympic Committee.  All three have applied for Israeli citizenship.  Their newly formed Israeli Bobsled Federation has invented a new Hebrew word for bobsled, "mizchelete bob," based on the Hebrew word for sled, mizchelet.
