Who We Are
At the heart to Takaanini Giants is a story about a man named Ihaka Takaanini. Ihaka Takaanini was once a chief of the mana whenua of this south auckland region. He died fighting for his people but his successor was his son Te Wirihana. We as a people both tangata whenua and moana pasifika stand on the shoulders of our tupuna, we stand strong for cultural values.
One of our clubs objectives is to support the growth of American Football which has been around since the 70s in New Zealand, Aotearoa. With Generations of families committed to the gridiron.
Our mission goal is to tautoko our families our rangatahi and our community with American Football as the vessel to support our people's health & wellbeing. This club is run by tangata moana for tangata moana to thrive. Founded and established the week of Matariki 22nd June 2022.
