Halifax will be a terrific host and we look forward to working with the Host Committee, Hockey Nova Scotia and then Canadian Hockey League in making the 2003 World Juniors the best ever. Under 17 hockey players at the World Under 17 Challenge in Truro and New Glasgow this past winter. Even though final approval has only come today, we are overwhelmed with the response we've had, as we have already sold over 7000 ticket packages.
Tickets are still available for games in Halifax.
We are also looking forward to the legacy that the World Juniors will bring. This event will be very important for hockey development in not only Nova Scotia, but the entire Atlantic region. The hosting of the World Junior Championship by Halifax in 2003 will be the sixth time Canada has hosted this event. THE CHL 305 Milner Ave.
