A considerable number of American expat ballers there are Jewish; they are able to claim dual citizenship under the Law of Return, which a) makes things easier visa-wise and b) means they don't count against the "four foreign players per team" limit. However, non-Jews have been playing there for decades, and conversions (cool story on a former UF Gator here: Playing with the converted) are rare.
