The Frozen Chosen

But when it comes to the Winter Olympics, Israel has counted it as a win just to be able to send a delegation.

Israeli American winter athletes Jared Firestone (skeleton racing) and AJ Edelman (bobsledding) want to change this status quo with their initiative “The Frozen Chosen.”

“The goal of the initiative is to bring Israel’s largest delegation ever to the 2026 Winter Olympics,” Firestone tells ISRAEL21c. “To create an ecosystem to allow that number to grow in 2030, in 2034 and so on.”
