Latest Updates
With the rising cost of sport, teams and clubs throughout Nova Scotia are required to raise funds just to remain operational. Sport Split 50/50 represents a unique fundraising opportunity that combines the sales from all participating teams and clubs into one monthly pot! The majority of the money raised goes straight to the community participants to put toward common expenses like registration, equipment, facility time, and travel. The other portion of the funds helps Sport Nova Scotia deliver grassroots programs like KidSport, Sport Fund, and Parasport.
The Sport Split 50/50 prize draw takes place on the first of each month, with an early bird prize draw on the 15th of each month.
February’s Early Bird Prize is four Halifax Mooseheads tickets, four t-shirts, and a $100 Subway gift card!
