\n\u201cIt\u2019s a big honor and a childhood dream to get to this point just like the others. I\u2019m really happy and I want to do something very big.\u201d<\/p>\n
\n\u201cIt\u2019s very important so that we can play together as a team. It\u2019s also very important to be able to integrate everyone into the system as it will be important for this competition. Over the course of the month we will see where we stand against other countries and these exhibition games will really help us really once we get to the actual competition.\u201d<\/p>\n
\n\u201cIt\u2019s a huge deal that it\u2019s happening in Israel. We can\u2019t wait for it to be here already and it will be great to have our fans here in Israel that will be able to see us at home. There is nothing greater than hosting it in Israel.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
