On June 17, 2024, Hockey Nova Scotia announced the introduction of the Hockey Nova Scotia Code of Conduct, designed to promote a safe, respectful, and positive environment in all sanctioned hockey activities. This comprehensive set of guidelines will take effect for the upcoming 2024-25 season, setting clear expectations for behaviour both on and off the ice.

The new Hockey Nova Scotia Code of Conduct is compliant with the Universal Code of Conduct to Prevent and Address Maltreatment in Sport (UCCMS) and its adoption was a recommendation of the Hockey Nova Scotia Diversity & Inclusion Task Force in their final report in 2021.

This code of conduct willnow be a mandatory waiver for general registration.
