The presence of a large number of world-class Jewish athletes elevated the quality of competition. The athletes had been housed in the newly built Maccabiah Village. Mexico sent its first contingent of athletes. Rosenberg fighting for France lived to that time in Germany, but Germany didn't have a team in that Maccabiah, so Rosenberg fought for France. HistoryThe Maccabiah Games were first held in 1932.[1] Notable medalistsAbie Grossfeld of the United States dominated the Games, winning 7 golds in 7 gymnastics events: AA, R, PH, FX, HB, PB, & V.

In weightlifting, Isaac Berger became the first athlete to establish a world record in the State of Israel, pressing 258 pounds (117 kg) in Featherweight competition for the US, a year after winning an Olympic gold medal.
