A major hockey tournament is coming to our province next year.
The U18 Women’s World Hockey Championship will be held in Sydney and Membertou in January.
It’s the first time the tournament will take place in Canada since 2016.
It will feature eight teams, and games will be played at Centre 200 and the Membertou Sport and Wellness Centre.
The bid is a partnership among Hockey Nova Scotia, the province, the Cape Breton Regional Municipality, Membertou First Nation and the Cape Breton Blizzard Female Hockey Association.
Cape Breton will welcome the world in January when Sydney and Membertou play host to #U18WomensWorlds!
