The Haka Bowl was a proposed American college football game scheduled to be played in New Zealand in 1996. Named for the traditional Māori haka, and promoted by NFL linebacker Riki Ellison (who was born in New Zealand), the Haka Bowl was planned to be the first post-season bowl game to be played outside the United States in half a century, since the Bacardi Bowl in Cuba in 1946. The game (which also would be the first NCAA football game played in the Southern Hemisphere), was to have been held at Eden Park in Auckland, New Zealand, matching up the third place teams from the then Pacific-10 Conference (now the Pac-12 Conference) and Western Athletic Conference (stopped playing football after the 2012–13 season). The payout for participating teams was set at $1.5 million, double the NCAA's s

  • The Haka Bowl was a proposed American college football game scheduled to be played in New Zealand in 1996. Named for the traditional Māori haka, and promoted by NFL linebacker Riki Ellison (who was born in New Zealand), the Haka Bowl was planned to be the first post-season bowl game to be played outside the United States in half a century, since the Bacardi Bowl in Cuba in 1946. The game (which also would be the first NCAA football game played in the Southern Hemisphere), was to have been held at Eden Park in Auckland, New Zealand, matching up the third place teams from the then Pacific-10 Conference (now the Pac-12 Conference) and Western Athletic Conference (stopped playing football after the 2012–13 season). The payout for participating teams was set at $1.5 million, double the NCAA's standard minimum at that time, and the minimum payout set for an international game. However, the contest, scheduled for 27 December 1996, was never played: when the Haka Bowl committee could not come up with financial guarantees, the NCAA revoked the license for the game, and the idea died. It would be another decade, until the International Bowl was played in Toronto, Ontario, Canada on 6 January 2007, that a college football bowl game would be played outside the United States. (en)
  • Le Haka Bowl, match de football américain d'après-saison régulière et de niveau universitaire, aurait dû avoir lieu en Nouvelle-Zélande le 27 décembre 1996. Tirant son nom du célèbre Haka des Maoris, et promu par le linebacker Riki Ellison (joueur de NFL né en Nouvelle-Zélande), le Haka Bowl aurait dû être le premier bowl d'après saison à être joué hors des États-Unis depuis un demi-siècle soit depuis le Bacardi Bowl joué à Cuba en 1946. Le match, qui aurait aussi été le premier à se jouer dans l'hémisphère sud, devait avoir lieu au Eden Park d'Auckland en Nouvelle-Zélande. Il devait mettre en présence le 3e équipes éligibles de la Pac-10 et de la WAC. Le pay-out pour les équipes participantes avait été fixé à 1 500 000 $ ce qui correspondait à cette époque au double des rétributions habituelles des bowls de NCAA. Malheureusement, la rencontre n'aura jamais lieu. En effet, lorsque le comité d'organisation du Haka Bowl annonce qu'il ne peut apporter les garanties financières nécessaires, la NCAA leur retire la licence. L'organisation d'un bowl en Nouvelle-Zélande venait d'échouer. Il faudra attendre une dizaine d'années pour qu'un bowl universitaire soit organisé en dehors des États-Unis. Le 6 janvier 2007, l'International Bowl se déroule au Canada, à Toronto en Ontario. (fr)
