Charities
The Nova Scotia Sport Hall of Fame is committed to preserving, promoting and protecting sport history in our province of Nova Scotia. We are proud to promote excellence in sport achievement in a manner that transcends age, race, gender and social background.
“Our Sport Heroes” are our focus. Through the use of our Hall of Fame facility at the Halifax Metro Centre, our interactive website, and our provincial wide education program, we tell stories of hard work, sacrifice, and perseverance that in many cases brought these Nova Scotians to the world’s stage. By celebrating these accomplishments we can give the youth of Nova Scotia role models, the inspiration to set personal goals, the understanding that success comes from hard work and dedication, and the knowledge that perseverance overcomes challenges.
By honoring the accomplishment of those who have gone before, we hope to instill a sense of possibility in those who will follow. The Nova Scotia Sport Hall of Fame is known as the “Best Provincial Sport Hall of Fame in Canada” and we hope to continue this reputation as sport grows in our great province.
Sport Nova Scotia is a non-profit, non-government organization, representing over 60 provincial sport organizations and more than 160,000 registered sport participants.
