NS Dept of Health and the NSSAF has given us the green light to resume hockey competition. Unfortunately fans will not be able to attend games until restrictions are eased. We will continue the regular season games and then will work out what to do with playoffs. Welcome back everyone!!!

NSSAF has postponed all school sports until after students return to school on January 25, 2021 following Christmas Break. The status of school sports will be re-evaluated then. The high school hockey league will resume with a modified schedule when sports are re-established, no earlier than Jan 28 due to exam week following the Jan.25 possible return to play.
