The Club
Ikuna Koa, “Victory” and “Strength”, Tongan and Hawaiian words that aptly describe our outrigger club’s attitude and spirit. Originally formed in 1996, it was revitalized in 2002 in the best spirit of Aloha and ‘Ohana, and continues to guide and support those who have found a passion for the ocean, paddling and the ancient traditions surrounding Outrigger canoeing. 
Ikuna Koa Outrigger Canoe Club is a 501(c)3, non profit, all volunteer organization located in San Diego, California on beautiful Mission Bay. Our location provides us great year-round weather, and some of the best open-ocean training grounds available on the U.S. Mainland.
Members of IKOCC receive continuous coaching throughout the year, with season training from March through September in preparation of the racing season which begins in May. Our goal is to configure teams at levels of competitive ability in order to put forth the most competitive effort to represent IKOCC and our sponsors at all SCORA sanctioned races.
Our Mission is to provide our members with education and skill in paddling and a sense of the ancient cultural traditions and aloha spirit which embodies the 
sport of Hawaiian Outrigger Canoe Racing, to practice with respect and care for our waterways, to expose as many people as possible to the sport, to encourage our ‘Ohana (family) to grow – from recreational paddlers to serious racers – to give back to the community by sharing the team building principals of outrigger with corporations and charitable organizations, and to represent San Diego in a positive and welcoming manner.
