Hockey Nova Scotia announced today that a Nova Scotia U16 AAA Hockey League franchise has been awarded in Region 2.

After a thorough selection process, an entry from Krista Hiscott was selected as the winning bid for the region. The Region 2 boundaries include players from the Sackville Minor Hockey Association and the East Hants Minor Hockey Association.

Hockey Nova Scotia began soliciting bids earlier this month.

The franchise will be branded as the Kings Hockey Club during the upcoming 2021-22 Nova Scotia U16 AAA Hockey League season.

Hiscott is very familiar with the league having served as the manager of the former ChiroCare Kings franchise for the past three seasons.

Hockey Nova Scotia would like to congratulate Krista Hiscott on her winning bid and wish the Kings Hockey Club the best of luck this year.
