The Nova Scotia Soccer League – A Brief History

their website NSSL 

With the demise of the Atlantic Soccer League in 1982, the formation of the Nova Scotia Soccer League (NSSL) was established in time for the 1983 season. It was to take its place as t

he premier level for Senior Men’s Soccer in the province.

Initial members of the league in 1983 were Dartmouth United Oland, Dartmouth

Croatia, H.H Marshall’s, Valley Cochranes, Dartmouth United Ocean Contractors and Halifax King of Donair

At the 1984 Soccer NS Annual General Meeting, the NSSL was directed to establish youth and women’s divisions. The winner of each division would also be declared Provincial “A” Champions in their category, and go on to represent Nova Scotia nationally. The decision led to the organization of under-14, under-16, and under-18 boys and girls divisions, as well as a Senior A Women’s division. This decision further enhanced the standing of teams in the NSSL and lead to them becoming the focal points for soccer in throughout the Province.

On April 1,2018 the League amalgamated with the province’s biggest grassroots/community league, the Capital Inter District Soccer League and the Metropolitan Indoor Soccer League to f

orm the New Nova Scotia Soccer League to provide province wide competition for all tiers of soccer from U-9 to Senior. The amalgamation created the province’s largest sport league both outdoor (345 teams) and indoor (272 teams)

In many ways last year (2018) was the beginning of a new era for the Nova Scotia Soccer League. New structure ,new mandate. As the league moves forward it’s important that some of t

he key players, coaches, builders and sponsors of the 1983-2017

period are acknowledged
