21 YEAR-OLD TWINS TO NEW JERSEY AS JAFI EMISSARIES

21 year-old twins, Tal and Moran Sasson from Yehud, will soon be leaving for a term of shlichut I New Jersey. The two were chosen from among hundreds of candidates, to teach gymnastics over the next two months to hundreds of New Jersey children that will participate in summer camps organized by the local Jewish community. The twins are the daughters of Yisrael Sasson, who was the gatekeeper of the Hapoel Yehud soccer team when it won the state cup in 1982. Both girls, who began their sports activities at age six, recently finished their army service, promise to improve the physical prowess of New Jersey's youngsters in the coming weeks. "We won't leave New Jersey before setting up a troupe of young sportspeople that will appear at events organized by the Jewish Agency in the region," said one of the twins.
