LIHU‘E — When the season opened on June 18 at Hanapepe Stadium, it was the biggest turnout since K-PAL (Kaua‘i Police Activities League) took over the flag football program.
The league kept growing every season and this year, there were six teams from Lihu‘e, three teams from Kapa‘a, two teams from Waimea and Anahola, and one each from Koloa and Kilauea in three divisions, cubs, bobcats, and wildcats.
The teams played at two venues, the Vidinha Stadium Soccer Complex and Hanapepe Stadium.
Numerous volunteers from the Kaua‘i Police Department and sports figures from around the island helped out to make the season a great success.
K-PAL director Mark Ozaki outdid himself again by accomodating each team with the necessary resources, despite the growing number of participants.
After the contests, teams were handed out medals for their participation in the league.
Up next is the Pop Warner season and coaches, players, and parents can’t wait for the tackling to begin, but until next season, the flags will be tucked back into the storage rooms from each association.
