Hockey NS creating league for displaced high school players
Hockey Nova Scotia has created a league for high school players displaced by the teachers’ job action. The Nova Scotia School Athletic Federation won’t sanction games while that’s on, so teams that register for this league will play 10 to 12 regular season games plus playoffs. The deadline to do so is January 12th, check out hockeynovascotia.ca for more.
