Polynesian Football | KAHUKU MANA | NFL 360 

Thank you NFL Network for this special. I've lived in Kahuku all my life and I could not be more proud than I am right now to be a Red Raider. #RR4L 🤙🏻

Proud to be from Hawaii. These boys from the north shore of Oahu carry out our Polynesian strength and culture through football. Mahalo nui iā 'oukou pākahi!

RIL to the other amazing boy who lost his life by suicide. The video mentioned the two boys but he remained nameless. He was the biggest Kuhuku football fan! He looked up to those boys. A joy to all! He is remembered, loved, and missed!!!

I didn’t go to kahuku but this makes me proud to be from Hawai’i and proud to see the kahuku red raiders bringing attention to the islands. So many local boys have the talent to make it and this just helps them see their dreams come to fruition ❤

Mahalo Nui Loa NFL , Football to us Polynesian is part of our culture and means a lot to us much Aloha From Nānākuli 🙏🏽🤙🏽

Thank you for this. I’ve lived the west side of Oahu my whole life but always had the biggest love for Kahuku. Love their community, and overall their football culture 🤟🏾🤙🏾 GO BIG RED

"CHICKEN SKIN "Awesome legacy that are generation deep! There is no other than our " Red Big Team" & Red Raider Nation ❤🤙 RR4L"66

Love and respect from Texas! Had the privilege to visit the last couple of years and the North Shore is where you'll find your spirit.

MUCH LOVE FOR SHOWING OUR ISLAND & OUR PEOPLE ‼️ DIFFERENT BREEDS 🙏💯 LOVE FROM WAIANAE 92 🤙🤙🤙

Small school under 1000. A public school. Where many struggle to make ends meet. They have great pride in their culture and football. But what they also produce is a lot of successful men after football. Their mana doesn’t just apply to football it applies to life. Proud fan from Wyoming.

Mahalo nui NFL Network for putting this together and showcasing our awesome community here in Ko’olauloa. I would like to say that the disqualification was not by a judge but by a council of OIA principals that met and made that decision. They started the meeting earlier than scheduled and did not allow our principal into the meeting knowing that she was on her way from the school and had her wait outside while they decided the fate of those young men. Of the 23 schools and principals, Kahuku was not allowed in, and all but 2 of the principals voted to not allow the Kahuku football team play for the OIA championship that year. The 2 school principals that voted in favor of Kahuku playing were Castle and Ānuenue. The other 20 principals from Aiea, Campbell, Farrington, Kailua, Kaimuki, Kaiser, Kalaheo, Kalani, Kapolei, Leilehua, McKinley, Mililani, Moanalua, Nanakuli, Pearl City, Radford, Roosevelt, Waialua, Waianae and Waipahu high schools, whose jobs are to advocate for children decided that these children at Kahuku were not worth advocating for and took the chance for these boys to play against Mililani in the OIA championship away from them. The ruling from the judge came later, he was not the one that decided the fate of that season, those 20 principals did.

Wow...Just love how they covered, the great, the bad and the sad experiences for this North Shore community. Wish they had more Kahuku Grad NFL players speaking on their experiences in the community.

Okay, this was the first football movie that really inspired me! I loved the videography, the respect to the players, coaches, and culture was beautiful! thank you

We love you kahuku. All da way from 96792

Islander just build for both rugby and nfl. Always love the culture ❤

The mana that we feel on the islands can only be felt between us who have grown up on the islands 🙏🏾

In old Kahuku stands our alma mater, Where the salt winds blow day after daaaaay. Where her doors flung wide for her sons & daughters true. Where the flag of freedom proudly waves about! (Dada dat dat dat dat dat dat) Hail Kahuku, hail our alma mater! Hail to our colors red & whiiiiite! We'll cherish looooove & honor theeeee. All haaaail Kahukuuu, haaaaaaail!!! Great depiction of Kahuku Mana. #RR4L #PRIDEoftheNORTHSHORE #REBELsquad #ENEMYoftheSTATE

Good for St Louis, when I was at Damien in the 90s they smoked us by 80+. They had like 100 players and we had our QB also play DB. Ironman played both O and D Line. We the reason get that mercy rule😂

RIP to Coach Pele, and where was Coach Reggie and Levi? Missed those 2 legends.

Amazing

This was so beautifully done. My heart broke to hear about the suicide and the I am so proud of these courageous communities who continue to thrive no matter what happen.

They Beat Bosco, wow!!!! They got some real warrior mentality

Kahuku always brings it. Blessed to call Hawaii home.

Although not a Kahuku alumni, grew up w/friends & other relatives who did & understand the family power, pride & commitment to something bigger than self....Imua, RR...ALWAYS Imua!

Unity…class of ‘81. It’s more than pride. It’s family.

Cheeehoooooo Best High School on the 'aina RR4L. GO BIGRED.

Great video!

Wow!! RR4L!

Proud & blessed to have Kahuku as my alma mater. The heartbeat of the North Shore. RR4L ❤️🤍 Rest in Paradise DD, #42.

From a kid from kaimuki I get so hyped anytime I see a kabuki raider video logo etc dey put in so much work dey deserve all da respect

Glad the Haka is still being done. The first time Kamate was performed was during the 2000 season after hell week, for the talent show. Those of us that didn't know what to do got together with some kids from NZ and decided to do the Haka. The next year, they started performing Kamate before each game. Coach Sola should remember. It was his senior year when they started that tradition.

They need a Documentary series

Mana is best explained as the Jedi Force! The original Jedis are in Polynesia.

Cheeeeehoo!! ❤❤

❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥

Lets go RED RAIDER NATION 4 Life #classof99

“You have the mountains, and you have the ocean…that’s about it.” Ummmm…that’s enough for me, thanks.

rip cousin deedee

‘94 boys.

Though I was from town whenever my cousins would suit up for kahuku. I would always be apart of the RED SEA!! The pride of the North Shore is unmatched

You have to be raised in Hawaii to understand Kahuku’s Mana

RIP to those lost.

Was the program that important that the high school admin looked pass he's a fifth year senior? 7:31

Or most importantly have people forget the overall intent of the NFL, have every part of the game been claimed as a foundation come TAX time

No disrespect but Texas high school fan base got something to say

Haka looks Demonic

I love their dedication to football and their strong bonds it brings to the community. But HS football only lasts for 4 years. I think they should aspire more than just to play HS Football. Some will go to play college football, and select few that make it through college football get to play in NFL. Most will need mentors to guide them to a life after HS Football.

Why was he ineligible

Sad...really heart breaking to watch this and I found my dear friend...teammate...my uso Faga had passed away. Love you uso, I will always cherish our senior year together.

Rest in peace coach Matt Faga

Haka hella cringey

Laie boys cheeeee
