The Hawaiian Islanders were a minor league team of the
Neal S. Blaisdell Center Arena.[1] It competed in the AF2 National Conference West. They were owned by Charles Wang, who also owned the New York Islanders and the AFL's New York Dragons. The Islanders were an affiliate of the Dragons, along with the short-lived New Haven Ninjas
. The team existed from 2002 to 2004.
The Islanders were coached by
St. Louis School for the past 20 seasons. Fullback Josh White
played with the Islanders before playing in the AFL.
The team disbanded after the 2004 season.
During the team's inaugural 2002 season, Oceanic Time Warner Cable carried every home game live on a pay-per-view basis.[2] Kanoa Leahey and Robert Kekaula served as the television announcers.[3]
