High school football is back in Hawaii.

Although the season typically kicks off on the first Friday of August, the last time that a high school football season did so was in 2019. There was no season in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, while the 2021 regular season was delayed until mid-September for the ILH and mid-October for the OIA.

The 2022 season kicks off on Thursday, when Waialua visits Farrington at Skippa Diaz Stadium for a 6 p.m. kickoff.

After that, a full slate of games will take place on Friday and Saturday, highlighted by Saint Louis taking on Mililani at John Kauinana Stadium on Friday at 7:30 p.m. in a rematch of last season’s epic HHSAA Open Division semifinals.
