Background
Vaimauga was born in Auckland, New Zealand. He was educated at De La Salle College, Māngere East.[3] He was an Otahuhu Leopards junior.[4]
Playing career
Vaimauga was first signed by the New Zealand Warriors in 2019 as a 15-year-old from the Otahuhu Leopards. In 2023, after impressive performances in the lower grades, and in the Warriors opening trial fixture, Vaimauga was upgraded to a top 30 contract and re-signed until the end of 2025.[5][6]
Vaimauga made his first grade debut in his side's 14−0 loss to the Sydney Roosters at Mount Smart Stadium in round 9 of the 2023 NRL season.[7] In his second match against the Penrith Panthers, Vaimauga was sent to the sin bin by referee Todd Smith for apparently striking Penrith's Nathan Cleary.[8] Vaimauga was not charged by the NRL match review over the incident.[9][10]
On 10 December 2024, the Warriors announced that Vaimauga had re-signed with the club until the end of 2028.[11]
