Maui Snorkeling announces sponsorship of the 39th Maui Jim Maui Invitational, the nation’s premier early-season college basketball tournament. The official sponsorship provides support to the tournament through cash and in-kind services along with discounted tour packages for the players, their families, participating universities and their administrations, the media, and to all Maui Invitational ticket holders.

The tournament, having started in 1990, sees nearly 5,000 out-of-state visitors – players, officials, team and game personnel, media representatives, sponsors, production crews, and fans descend on Maui for the Fall-scheduled event. It’s hosted in Lahaina, a historic whaling village that boasts a history as deep as the roots of the city’s symbol – the old Banyan tree. Lahaina used to be a playground for Hawaiian royalty and was once the capital of Maui, the second largest island of Hawaii.

“The Maui Invitational is certainly one of the most exciting events on Maui each year and we are thrilled to be part of its storied tradition. We love sharing Maui with visitors and are really excited to join forces with brands like Maui Jim, Continental Tire, and Tommy Bahama,” said Mark Elmore, President of Maui Snorkeling.

“Our special discounts and snorkeling packages for the teams, their families and loyal fan bases should ensure that everyone’s time on Maui is exhilarating from start to finish. It’s an honor to be a part of it all and we look forward to a long history with the event,” said Mark Elmore, President of Maui Snorkeling.

The Maui Invitational takes place November 21 through November 23, 2022 on the island of Maui. The 2022 field will feature Arkansas, Arizona, Cincinnati, Creighton, Louisville, Ohio State, San Diego State and Texas Tech, at the historic Lahaina Civic Center.

About the Maui Jim Maui Invitational

In December 1982, then No. 1 ranked Virginia, led by National College Player of the Year Ralph Sampson, played little-known NAIA Chaminade University in Honolulu while on the way back from a trip to Tokyo. The Silverswords stunned Virginia 77-72 in one of the greatest upsets in college basketball history. Two years later, in 1984, Chaminade University hosted the first Maui Jim Maui Invitational and it has proven to be the premier early-season college basketball tournament for 36 years running. Each year, the Maui Jim Maui Invitational attracts the top programs, best-known coaches and most outstanding players to compete in an exciting atmosphere at the Lahaina Civic Center near the beautiful beaches of Maui.
