About 200 people from Lithuania participated in the second "Maccabia" in Tel-Aviv in 1935 and most of them remained there, which included several young people from Kibart.

Among the activists of "Maccabi" were Sh.Volovitzky, Dov Sheinzon and others.

The left wing circles in the town, who did not like the Zionist orientation of "Maccabi," established another sports organization "J.S.K.", but it lasted for only one year and closed down in 1926.
