HPP Staff

The Hockey Nova Scotia High Performance Program is focused on preparing and identifying the very best players in our province for future national program opportunities. The program's goal is to expose players to high-level training with a focus on skill development, nutrition, mental performance, and off-ice training and conditioning.

Each year, we look for new staff members to join our Hockey Nova Scotia High Performance Program team. We have several opportunities available. Please note that these are volunteer positions, but staff will receive an apparel package and expenses associated with this program are covered. All expenses associated with being involved in the program are covered by Hockey Nova Scotia including travel and accommodations. Staff should expect to have a roommate at hotels, and single rooms at residence during camps and events. 

NOW ACCEPTING APPLICATIONS

Hockey Nova Scotia is now accepting applications for our High Performance Program.

While Hockey Nova Scotia narrows down our provincial team coaching staffs, we do want to have as many coaches as possible involved in our provincial program and camps. These camps are an excellent opportunity for aspiring coaches to share and learn from other coaches and build their own coaching networks.
