The tournament at the Kaanapali Golf Course Pond is open to youths ages 2 to 18 years old, with a registration fee of $25 per participant, which includes an event T-shirt. Registration is confirmed at the time of payment. For registration assistance, contact Maui United Way at (808) 244-8787.

“Our Hawaiian Electric ‘ohana always looks forward to being able to host this event every year and after a three-year hiatus, we’re excited to bring it back,” Shayna Decker, director of government and community affairs for Hawaiian Electric — Maui County, said in a news release. “We’re honored to be able to support Maui United Way and all the wonderful work they do.”

Parking arrangements will be different than in previous events. All participant parking will be at the Lahaina Civic Center and shuttles to and from the event will begin at 5 a.m. by Polynesian Adventure Activities. A drop-off area will be available at the golf course for families and participants to drop off items and passengers before parking.

During the tournament, keiki will be vying for the “biggest tilapia” of the day in their age category. At the last tournament held in 2019, over $25,000 was raised for Maui United Way, a nonprofit that raises funds to support Maui’s most vital needs through their partner agency health and human services programs.
