Jr. League expressing caution
Thursday, 38 new Covid-cases were reported in Antigonish, bringing to 59 the total number related to recent the St. FX outbreak. With the Nova Scotia Government expecting more cases in the coming days, Nova Scotia Junior Hockey League Officials have decided to be extra cautious and postpone some upcoming games prior to their Christmas Break. The AA Munro Antigonish Jr. Bulldogs and Pictou County Scotians have decided to put their scheduled games off until the new year. This means the Liverpool-Antigonish game scheduled for Antigonish Friday night and the Jr. Bulldogs-Pictou scheduled for Trenton Sunday night will not be played at the present time. As well, the Scotians will not be making their trip to East Hants Friday night.
The Eskasoni Jr. Eagles have also postponed their weekend trip to Western Nova Scotia and games between the Maple Leafs and Privateers in the Valley and Liverpool have also been put off to the new year. Brookfield and Sackville have also postponed their game Saturday afternoon in Brookfield.
The Capstone Cole Harbour Colts will play in the only two scheduled games in the league this weekend as they will host the Cumberland County Blues Friday evening at the Shearwater Arena at 7:30 and the Valley Maple Leafs Saturday night at 7:30 p.m.
