Junior Coaching Leadership Program - Sign up today!!!

Hello Chebucto!!!

Are you a U13 age or older player and interested in volunteer coaching?

The Junior Coach Leadership Program is available to Minor Hockey players (U13 age and up) who wish to be involved in instructing U7 aged players and starting their coach leadership experience.

We have had great success the past 3 seasons with the Junior Coach Leadership Program and we are hoping to continue it this season. Due to Covid-19 and the restrictions upon us last season, we were unable to successfully run the program. However, this year the U7's are set to hit the ice Oct. 16th/17th and we'd like the Junior Coaches to start as soon as the sessions begin.

If your player is interested in becoming a part of the Junior Coach Leadership Program at Chebucto, please fill out the following form. All U7 sessions run on the weekends, times to be confirmed.

Please click here and sign up!!!

Spectators at Upcoming Practices

Hi Folks,

As teams are being settled and the first few practices are being scheduled here is some clarification regarding spectators at Chebucto on ice activities in the near term. 

Until team rosters including saftey representatives have been settled, submitted to and approved by Hockey Nova Scotia, only participants and volunteers will be allowed within the facility.

We do not expect to allow spectators until at least after our Rec balancing activities. We appreciate your understanding and are looking forward to having our fans and support again enjoying the season under safe conditions within the Provincial directives. 

Thanks again for helping to make our startup processes successful and your support to our volunteer staff.

Bryan Esbaugh
