Tommies Hockey and Track teams remain on hold due to Omicron wave

(HALIFAX, N.S.) As our region continues to navigate the impacts of COVID-19, Atlantic University Sport remains committed to finding a pathway to return to AUS competition as soon as we can safely do so.

In light of the current public health restrictions across Atlantic Canada, the AUS and its member schools are working towards a goal of resuming play by mid-February, pending provincial health authority and institutional approvals. We remain steadfast in our flexible and creative approach to exploring every possible option so that our student-athletes have the chance to compete. This may include a variety of scheduling solutions, with a focus on AUS regular season and championship competition.

“The resiliency of all AUS teams and coaches continues to inspire us,” says AUS executive director, Phil Currie. "We’re focused on finding a way for our student-athletes to safely finish their seasons and compete for AUS championships. We have several scenarios that would allow for this to happen and will be ready to move forward as soon as we have the opportunity.”
