Several provincial-representative teams will be competing for the National Para Hockey Championship title at the Lunenburg County Lifestyle Centre (LCLC) in Bridgewater, NS.
My son, Referee Drake Robinson, has been assigned by Hockey Nova Scotia to officiate at the tournament.

This is hosted by the South Shore I.C.E. Storm who will have several players competing for Team Atlantic and Team Saskatchewan.
Action begins at 8 a.m. on Thursday, May 15th and continues through to the gold medal game this weekend on Sunday, May 18th.
For more information and for a complete schedule watch the championship Facebook page at the National Para Hockey Championship 2025 on the link HERE
By the way, all games will also be live-streamed on the South Shore I.C.E. Storm YouTube page.
There is no admission charge for the entire weekend, so it’s a great chance to come and watch some great action.

Drake has officiated para ice hockey for the last few years including some gold medal games including the Para Cup in Quispamsis, New Brunswick in 2023 and in Charlottetown, PEI in December 2024.
I’ve been to some games, and it’s very fast paced and entertaining as these are incredibly talented athletes.
Good luck to all the teams and of course the officials too.
