ADL Hosts Intercultural Streetball Tournament in Jerusalem

Jerusalem, May 28, 2008 … The Anti-Defamation League (ADL) teamed up with the International Cultural and Community Center to hold the fifth annual Intercultural Streetball Tournament in Jerusalem,  aimed at encouraging friendship between communities and cultures through basketball.

This year's tournament was highlighted by a "dialogue tent" run by ADL where interactive workshops on respecting the other were held with the participation of Arab and Jewish teenagers from the Jerusalem area.

Following the workshops, dozens of teams competed in a tournament of Streetball, the three-on-three, high-paced basketball games made popular in the United States.

At dusk, the dialogue tent turned into a movie theatre that showed short films made by Arab and Jewish youth.


The Anti-Defamation League, founded in 1913, is the world's leading organization fighting anti-Semitism through programs and services that counteract hatred, prejudice and bigotry.
