***IMPORTANT***
Ohana Maoli and the Haka Boys are not responsible for you, as an
individual, if you do not make the
2014-2015 team. Every student has a 50/50 chance of making the
team which means no guaranteed spot
for any student trying out. Please do not feel discouraged if
you do not make it. If you would want to try
out the following year, we advise you to keep practicing
Polynesian dance. Thank you.
