CHAIR’S MESSAGE
T
his year has seen remarkable advances in the foundation of sport in Nova Scotia, especially in program
development and funding support. Much of Sport Nova
Scotia’s progress can be attributed to working closely
with our members and partners with a shared vision
and focus on building long-term relationships.
Together, in 2006/07, we were able to build on our
successful programs and deliver the benefits of sport
to communities across the province. Partnering with
our member Provincial Sport Organizations, sponsors,
government, local volunteers and communities, Sport
Nova Scotia was able to deliver two Milk Energy Sport
Fairs, the Manulife Dragon Boat Festival, the IKON
Sport Awards and programs such as the Nova Scotia
Amateur Sport Fund, Sport Futures Leadership, and the
After-School Physical Activity Program, just to name a
few. Our thanks to Nova Scotia Health and Protection
for helping us to create sport opportunities for all Nova
Scotians.
Our sport system is better resourced than ever before. A
most notable example of this commitment is the Nova
Scotia Gaming Corporation’s newly created Support 4
Sport program. In addition, Nova Scotia Health Promotion and Protection announced increases to both sport
infrastructure funding and our KidSportTM program.
These invaluable contributions are recognition that we
are effectively delivering quality programs province-wide.
It is important that we recognize the work and dedication shown by the Halifax 2014 Commonwealth Games
Bid Committee. It is very clear that their hard work has
greatly raised the profile of sport in the province and has
been a major catalyst for significant increases of funding support for all levels of sport. A strengthened sport
system will be the legacy of their efforts.
Much of Sport Nova Scotia’s
progress can be attributed
to working closely with our
members and partners with
a shared vision and focus
on building long-term
relationships.
We must, at every opportunity, celebrate the achievements of our athletes and recognize our coaches,
officials and volunteers for the significant role they play
in our sport system. The sell-out attendance, for the
second year in a row, of the IKON Sport Awards is a
very positive acknowledgement of the great success
our athletes, coaches and officials are having at home
and abroad, and are a testament to the strength of our
programs.
As we look to the future we are not without our
challenges. The fact remains that 50 per
cent of Nova Scotians are not physically active. Sport Nova Scotia’s Vision Statement
“that all Nova Scotians will attain better
health and a sense of achievement through
active participation in recreational and competitive sport” remains a significant goal that we need
to continually work toward.

CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER
T
he past year has been a significant one for sport in
Nova Scotia. The collaborative efforts of Sport Nova
Scotia with our members and partners have allowed us
to continue our progress in delivering the benefits of
sport to communities across the province.
Our Sport Nova Scotia programs continue to experience
success. Currently, 11 Provincial Sport Organizations
are taking advantage of our Sport Futures Leadership
program — our highest number since the program
began seven years ago. Our After-School Physical Activity Program was delivered at nine sites in Nova Scotia.
Most importantly, one site included a pilot program that
allowed for high school students’ participation to be
included as part of a curriculum credit. The Milk Energy
Sport Fair continued to move around the province, making its first stop in the Annapolis Valley where we were
host to 3,100 children who had a chance to experience
more than 20 different sports.
Sport Nova Scotia’s KidSportTM program had its most
successful year ever. Building on the work of our community chapters, our partnership with Community Services, and most importantly the funding assistance from
Nova Scotia Health Promotion and Protection, this year
KidSportTM allocated over $325,000 across the province,
an increase in allocations of 186 per cent since 2004,
and our highest total since the program’s inception ten
years ago. Along the way, KidSportTM topped the $1 million mark in funding allocated to Nova Scotian children
so they could take part in sport.
The success of our programs reflects the quality of the
partnerships we enjoy. Our continued relationships with
Doctors Nova Scotia, IKON Office Solutions, the Chronicle Herald, Manulife Financial, Aliant and Dairy Farmers
of Canada are key to the continued expansion of our
programs across the province. This year, we were also
thrilled to welcome aboard CTV as a corporate partner.
Our most important partnership continues to be with
Nova Scotia Health Promotion and Protection, whose
commitment and assistance has been an invaluable
support to all our areas of operation.
through the Nova Scotia Amateur Sport Fund. Sport
Nova Scotia is also pleased to be working with the
Department of Education on the potential development
of an external curriculum credit for high school students
who take coaching certification programs. In addition,
our Youth Leadership Program, operated with the assistance of Human Resources and Skills Development
Canada (HRSDC), has shown great results and is being
considered for expansion.
The success of our
programs reflects
the quality of the
partnerships we enjoy.
The success we have enjoyed illustrates the excellent
work that has been done by Provincial Sport Organizations and their members across the province. Our
advocacy efforts have helped build an awareness that
sport participation has positive effects on many aspects
of society, including health, education, justice and community development to name a few.
We realize our goals will be accomplished only with the
support and excellent work of our partners, our Provincial
Sport Organizations’ staff and volunteers, our Sport Nova
Scotia staff and our dedicated board of directors. Each of
these groups has been, and continues to be, integral to
our success, and they deserve our thanks. There is little
doubt that the coming year will bring many more successes with so many individuals committed to making
sport a part of the lives of every Nova Scotian.
Jamie Ferguson
CEO
As we look ahead, there are even more exciting developments taking place that will have a great effect, and
provide terrific opportunities, for the sport system in
Nova Scotia. In 2006, the Nova Scotia Gaming Corporation launched the Support 4 Sport program that now
includes a $2 million commitment of funding for sport

SPORT MARKETING
AND
EVENT MANAGEMENT
Jeff LeDrew, Director of Marketing
S
trategic alliances became the theme for this year’s
marketing activities, with several new partnerships
established to advance Sport Nova Scotia’s mandate.
CTV became the new Official Television Partner of Sport
Nova Scotia, with specific involvement in KidSportTM,
the Sport Makes A Difference / After-School Physical
Activity Program campaign and the IKON Sport Awards.
After celebrating the 10th anniversary of the IKON
Sport Awards, IKON Office Solutions continued their
outstanding commitment to amateur sport by signing a
new three-year partnership as Title Sponsor of the event.
Manulife Financial remained on board as Title Sponsor
of the 9th annual Manulife Dragon Boat Festival, with a
commitment to remain Title Sponsor in 2007.
KidSportTM took a major step
forward in 2006 increasing the number of children
helped by 42 per cent to
more than 1,300 youth.
Sport Nova Scotia’s profile was significantly increased
through a new partnership with Farmers Dairy, providing
a side panel promotion on more than 160,000 milk
cartons across the province. The Dairy Farmers of
Canada (Milk Energy) continued their dedication to
Nova Scotia’s youth by continuing as Title Sponsor of
both Milk Energy Sport Fairs and partner of the AfterSchool Physical Activity Program.
D’Costa Marketing and Enterprise Rent-A-Car continued
their involvement signing new three-year partnerships as
the Preferred Promotional Products Supplier and Official
Rental Car Company of Sport Nova Scotia. FX 101.9
FM and 89.9 Hal FM continued on as the Official Radio
Stations of Sport Nova Scotia with a new two-year deal,
while Graphic Concepts signed on as the new Preferred
Sign Supplier. Doctors Nova Scotia continued their
incredible commitment to events and programs as Sport
Nova Scotia’s Presenting Partner.
KidSportTM took a major step forward in 2006, increasing
the number of children helped by 42 per cent to
more than 1,300 youth. The program’s administration
received a significant boost with the signing of Aliant
as it’s new Premier Partner. KidSportTM also formed a
4
new equipment voucher program with Cleve’s Source
for Sports. The remaining four of thirteen regional
KidSportTM chapters were established to promote the
program at a local level. Nova Scotia Health Promotion
and Protection continued their outstanding support of
KidSportTM, providing $330,000 for the program.
The Milk Energy Sport Fair was back on the road in
2006. Acadia University joined forces with Sport Nova
Scotia, providing the War Memorial Gymnasium to host
more than 3,100 elementary and junior high school
students. Cape Breton University hosted the event for
the second straight year, with more than 2,200 students
attending.
In the area of fundraising, the 9th annual Manulife
Dragon Boat Festival was, once again, a huge success,
raising over $150,000 for the Nova Scotia Amateur Sport
Fund. The 20th anniversary Sport Sunsweep and 3rd
annual SportScape campaigns both showed growth
over 2005/06, raising over $100,000 and $70,000
respectively. The annual East Coast Classic in Digby
continued its path of raising over $20,000 in support
of Sport Nova Scotia; while the Annual Cadbury Easter
Egg Hunt continued to raise
funds and awareness for
KidSportTM. A
regular season
hockey pool was
also established
and a new
partnership was
formed with the
Chronicle Herald
to host a “Power
Play” playoff pool
fundraiser.
SPORT DEVELOPMENT
Mark Smith, Director of Sport Development
C
ollaborating with our members, and other likeminded groups with similar goals, continued to be
key for the Sport Development department in 2006/07
to ensure the best possible sport opportunities are
being developed for Nova Scotia communities. Through
these partnerships, Sport Nova Scotia’s development
of quality programming is having a direct impact on the
sport community.
The Sport Futures Leadership program continues to be
the premier sport development program resource in
Atlantic Canada. The program supports Provincial Sport
Organizations by funding participant-focused projects
throughout Nova Scotia. The strategic decision to revise
the program’s funding model in order to support project-based initiatives that focused on community sport
development has proven successful and allows Sport
Nova Scotia to better meet our members’ needs.
This year, 11 sports accessed the program to provide participant-centered,
community-focused initiatives.
These initiatives provided a variety
of program options and created
pathway opportunities in sport
for children and youth. In total,
11,905 participants took part
in Sport Futures-funded activities and 105 new coaches and
leaders were trained.
To address the ever-growing
challenge of physical
inactivity in the
province, Sport
Nova Scotia
continued to deliver the After-School Physical Activity Program to nine schools. Building on the success
achieved in previous years, Sport Nova Scotia continued
to develop relationships with schools and school boards
interested in offering this program to their students.
Sport Nova Scotia’s
development of quality
programming is having a
direct impact on the sport
community.
This year, the program was again offered at nine schools
and in seven regional school boards with excellent
results and very positive feedback. In addition, Sport
Nova Scotia also worked with one high school to pilot
the youth leadership portion of the program as part of
the current student curriculum. Through the pilot, high
school students are incorporating their training and
working with the After-School Physical Activity Program
with a pre-existing course for which they get credit. This
marks another step towards reaching Sport Nova Scotia’s
goal of expanding this program to more elementary
schools in Nova Scotia.
Another important achievement for the Sport Development department was the ongoing success of the Nova
Scotia Amateur Sport Fund as the premier sport funding
program in the province. In total, 44 athletes, 11 coaches, seven officials, 14 community sport organizations, 21
Provincial Sport Organizations and nine post-secondary
awards were distributed. The total amount of funding
distributed in 2006 was $79,355.
Sport Nova Scotia’s partnership with Human Resources
and Skills Development Canada and the Chignecto-Central Regional School Board to deliver the Youth Leadership Program successfully completed its third year.
In 2006, the program supported six youth who faced
employment barriers. After successfully completing
this program, the youths eventually returned to school
or found employment. This partnership with regional
school boards, municipal recreation departments and
community-based youth sport agencies continues to
provide employment enhancement opportunities for
young people with barriers to employment.

PUBLIC RELATIONS
AND
COMMUNICATIONS
Catherine McKellar, Director of Public Relations and Communications
T
his was an exciting and busy year for the Public Relations and Communications department. Significant
achievements were made on several fronts, many of
which have helped to position Sport Nova Scotia for
another dynamic year to come.
Sport Nova Scotia had one of its most successful years
with respect to government relations. For the first time
in recent years, Sport Nova Scotia appeared before the
Federal Standing Committee on Finance during the prebudget hearings. The submission focused on the economic, social and health benefits of Canadians participating in sport and called on the federal government to
fulfill its promise of investing one per cent of the health
budget into sport and recreation, as well as a separate
investment in sport infrastructure.
Sport Nova Scotia had
one of its most successful
years with respect to
government relations.
Sport Nova Scotia was very active during the provincial
election in June 2006. A Town Hall Meeting was held
with representatives from the three main parties. Members were invited to attend and ask questions. The political candidates also provided written answers to several
questions. An advertisement was then placed in the
Chronicle Herald showcasing their responses and support for sport. One new initiative undertaken during the
election was a “road show” to key candidates in several
ridings. Sport Nova Scotia’s CEO met with several
candidates to provide an informal briefing on the
organization’s goals and objectives.
Along with government relations, Sport Nova
Scotia’s advocacy efforts included
the development
of a new Sport
6
Makes a Difference (SMAD) campaign, which continued to be a “call for action.” This year, Sport Nova Scotia
called on families to enroll their children in organized
sport or physical activities after school. This included a
subtle promotion of Sport Nova Scotia’s After-School
Physical Activity Program. Efforts were made to make
the campaign widespread across the province. Elements
of the campaign included billboards, transit shelter
advertisements, radio public service announcements,
advertisements in the Chronicle Herald, an article in the
Doctors Nova Scotia monthly magazine and a new TV
commercial in partnership with CTV.
Sport Nova Scotia continued to participate in joint
endeavors with partners and like-minded organizations
to promote the benefits of sport and the opportunities
available through our members’ programs.
Another important initiative was the launch of the Support 4 Sport program. Working closely with the Nova
Scotia Gaming Corporation and other partners to launch
the lottery ticket products, this new program will lead
to more than a 100 per cent increase in annual funding
available to Provincial Sport Organizations, athletes and
coaches.
A noteworthy joint project was the What’s Up With Active Living educational supplement developed for Active
Awareness Week by Sport Nova Scotia and Doctors
Nova Scotia and supported by the Chronicle Herald. The
newspaper-style insert was produced with a comic-strip
theme and look to make it appealing to grade four students—the target audience. The supplement, along with
a teacher’s guide, was one of the most successful supplements for the Chronicle Herald. Over
12,700 students from across Nova Scotia received the insert after their teachers registered
with the newspaper. The supplement was also
distributed in the paper’s general circulation across Nova
Scotia.

port Nova Scotia is contracted by Nova Scotia Health
Promotion and Protection (NSHPP) to provide administrative support to provincial sport and recreation
organizations. Sport Nova Scotia provides subsidized
services to active and associate members, as well as
recreation organizations approved by NSHPP. In the fiscal
period of 2006/07, 75 organizations were eligible for
subsidies. The graph to the right shows the sources of
revenue for the administrative center.
The basic policy of Sport Nova Scotia is that costs associated with operating the Sport and Recreation Administrative Centre will be set at a level that ensures the
operations of the centre, at a minimum, break even;
and that any surplus will be used for the purpose of
providing administrative services. In the fiscal period of
2006/07, the Administrative Centre realized a surplus of
$42,000 that will be added to the accumulated surplus
of $75,000. The accumulated surplus will be used for
future expenditures to keep pricing stable for administrative services.
Financial Statements
S
port Nova Scotia had another financially successful
year with a consolidated surplus of $123,732. This
surplus was mainly due to increases over budget in revenue for interest, Sport Fair sponsorship, fundraising, contracted staff services and rental income, while the cost
savings were in wages/benefits, administrative overhead,
member/registered user printing services, management
information systems, professional development, building
maintenance, water consumption and snow removal.
Revenues were up thanks to the increasing support
from sponsors and the provincial and federal governments, allowing us to grow our program delivery to our
membership. Due to new reporting procedures required
for 2006, transactions from the Nova Scotia Amateur
Sport Fund and the KidSportTM Fund were recorded in
the Sport Nova Scotia financial statements. This too had
a significant impact on the increase in revenues and expenses as compared to the last fiscal period, and more
accurately reflects the total scope of Sport Nova Scotia’s
activities.

n 2006, the Nova Scotia Amateur Sport Fund continued to support the province’s amateur sport community by funding more than 100 requests to athletes,
coaches, officials and community and provincial sport
organizations.
In the athlete category, the Canadian Sport Centre
Atlantic and Nova Scotia Health Promotion and Protection continued to be vital partners to ensure the Fund
supports Nova Scotia’s athletes as systematically and efficiently as possible. This year the Sport Fund supported
44 of Nova Scotia’s top amateur athletes.
The Sport Fund’s partnerships with Manulife Financial
and Doctors Nova Scotia have also been a continued
success. Through the Manulife Community and Provincial Sport Grant category, the Sport Fund continued to
support grassroots programming in communities across
the province; while the Doctors Nova Scotia Post Secondary Award category saw nine successful applicants
receive tuition support for their education while they
continue their training.
In total, the Nova Scotia Amateur Sport Fund distributed
$79,355 in funding to amateur sport in the province
during 2006, fulfilling their mandate of supporting Nova
Scotia’s top athletes and providing more opportunities
for Nova Scotians to participate in sport.
