CAN I BRING FRIENDS?
ABSOLUTLEY! Supporters are more than welcome. They even have a special price of $150pp to gain full access to all the tournament benefits.

 

WHAT STANDARD OF TEAM/PLAYER DO I HAVE TO BE?
Any standard. It is an open tournament so you have to be 18 years of age and over. There is prizemoney so we expect there will be a fairly high standard of teams. Our main aim though is to have people having a great time in a great place playing the game they love. You can do all of that either winning or losing. Regardless of the level of rugby league you play it is important to remember that people attending the Waikiki 9’s come to play in a friendly environment where the outcome is enjoyed by all regardless the outcome. Accordingly, aggressive and unsportsmanlike behaviours on or off the field is not acceptable.

 

WHAT HAPPENS IF A PLAYER IS INJURED?
Part of your entry into the tournament covers a medical officer to be there throughout the tournament to attend the injured.
