The Novas 25-Player Protected List

In accordance with the regulations of the Nova Scotia U15 Major Hockey League, twenty-five players from across our region have been identified and placed on The Novas 25-Player Protected List following our 2026 Spring Identification Camp.

We would like to congratulate all players who participated in this year’s process. The level of talent, effort, and competitiveness throughout camp made for an extremely difficult selection process for our staff.

Our official 25-Player Protected List is now available on our website:

Players not included on The Novas 25-Player Protected List will receive a NSU15MHL Player Release Form in the coming days and will become eligible to attend tryouts with any team in the Nova Scotia U15 Major Hockey League.

More Than Hockey 💙💛

Members of the Nova Hockey family were honoured to recently attend the Special Olympics Bowling Banquet as special guests.

Head Coach Jamie Mattie, Assistant Captain Manton Austen, and President Shane MacIsaac enjoyed a wonderful evening filled with great food, great conversations, and the opportunity to spend time with some incredible Special Olympics athletes and their families.

One of the highlights of the evening was having the privilege of presenting medals to members of the Special Olympics Floor Ball team — a group that has built a special connection with The Novas through our annual games and community events together.

The smiles, friendships, and sense of community shared throughout the evening are what sports are truly all about. We are grateful to have been included in such a special celebration and look forward to continuing the relationship between The Novas and the Special Olympics community for years to come.

A special thank you to Joan Conrad, Marilyn MacLellan, and all involved for their hospitality, kindness, and for making the evening such a memorable experience for everyone involved. 💙💛

Tough finish in the Gold Medal game, falling 5–3 with an empty netter in the final minute.

Proud of the way the boys battled right to the end. With a depleted lineup, they showed resilience, heart, and never backed down. This one could’ve gone either way.

Even more proud of how they represented our province, our region, and what it means to be a "Nova" —compete hard, play for each other, and carry yourselves with pride.

Congratulations to the Eastern Hitmen on a hard-fought win—well earned.

We may have come up short on the scoreboard, but the effort, character, and pride were undeniable. Heads high. 💪🥈

🏆 GOLD MEDAL GAME DAY 🏆

It all comes down to this.

The final day of the season.
The final game of the year.
For many, the final U15 game of their journey.

Today isn’t just about a medal — it’s about the memories you’ve built, the friendships that will last far beyond the rink, and the countless hours that brought you here.

Every shift. Every battle. Every moment.

Leave it all out there.
Play for each other.
Play with pride.
Play like it’s the last time — because for some, it is.

This is why we play the game.

Now go take what’s yours. 🥇
