think they dropped the Rainbow part some years back.


A year or two back they decided to change non-football nicknames back to "Rainbow," and to re-add "Rainbow" as a prefix to make "Rainbow Warriors" for football.

So the football name has been Rainbow, then Rainbow Warriors, then Warriors, and now Rainbow Warriors again.

I'm glad they went back to it. Other teams would sound weird or silly with a name like Rainbow Warriors but with Hawaii it just fits. It just sounds so much like the Island.
