Who We Are

Since 2014, we have embraced the “ohana” spirit, creating a sense of family that goes beyond the waters where we paddle.

Our Mission

We aim to promote teamwork, improve physical and mental well-being, and cultivate a strong community through inclusive multi-sports activities that bring together individuals of all ages and backgrounds.

Our Vision

To cultivate and spread our passion for sports by representing our sponsors in competitive events, enhancing their brand, and nurturing a strong sense of community.

“When people ask me what community I am apart of, I think of OPA. This Ohana has given me irreplaceable memories and friends, and shaped who I am as a person today.”

— Christian Manaog, member since 2014
