Former Canada coach Stephen Hart named interim coach of the NSL's Halifax Tides FC
HALIFAX – Stephen Hart, former coach of the Canadian national team and Halifax Wanderers of the Canadian Premier League, has been named interim coach of the Northern Super League's Halifax Tides FC. The 65-year-old Hart succeeds Lewis Page, who has shifted roles to help establish the Tides development academy. At 1-6-1, Halifax sits in the basement of the six-team NSL after losing three straight games. 'It's an honour to step into this role,' Hart said in a statement. 'Our team is focused, resilient and committed to growing together both on and off the field. I'm excited to lead this next chapter and help guide the players through the remainder of the season with passion, purpose and pride.' Hart coached the Canadian men in various stints from 2006 to 2012, posting a 20-15-10 record. He resigned in October 2021 after an 8-1 loss to Honduras ended Canada's World Cup qualifying run. After coaching his native Trinidad and Tobago, Hart took charge of the Halifax entry in the CPL for its debut season in 2019. He was fired in October 2022 after an 8-15-5 campaign. More recently, he has served as a consultant to the NWSL's Portland Thorns. 'This is about building for the long-term success of the club,' said Tides president Valerie Malone. 'Strengthening our leadership structure and investing in player development, starting with the academy — are important steps in that direction. We're also continuing to reinforce the roster and look forward to sharing more on that later this week.' Halifax hosts the Calgary Wild on July 7.

Calgary's Wild FC downs Halifax Tides 3-2 in Northern Super League
CALGARY - Calgary's Wild FC held off the Halifax Tides 3-2 on Thursday in the Northern Super League. Wild (3-2-2) scored three first-half goals before the winless Tides (0-5-1) countered with two late in the second. Calgary extended its undefeated run to four straight games with two wins and two draws in that span. Wild FC defeated the Tides 4-1 in Halifax on April 26 for Calgary's first NSL victory, and a week after the six-team NSL launched with the Vancouver Rise blanking Calgary 1-0. The Wild's Taegan Stewart scored her first career NSL goal when the 17-year-old Calgarian drilled a right-foot shot from the centre box home in first-half extra time. Jenaya Robertson of Delta, B.C., made it 2-0 for the hosts at McMahon Stadium with a left-footed strike in the 41st minute. Australian defender Ally Green got Calgary's first-half scoring burst underway in the 23rd minute. Wild goalkeeper Stephanie Bukovec's bid for a third clean sheet in four games was foiled when Haligonian Saorla Miller and Japanese striker Megumi Nakamura scored in the 72nd and 76th minutes respectively for the Tides. Bukovec and Halifax keeper Erin McLeod, who has appeared in 119 games for the Canadian women's team, each made one save. Bukovec was the busier of the two women with 68 touches to McLeod's 36. Wild FC's next game is against AFC Toronto in Calgary on June 14. The Tides host Ottawa Rapid FC on June 10. Toronto versus Ottawa and Vancouver against Montreal Roses FC is Saturday's NSL match lineup. This report by The Canadian Press was first published June 5, 2025.

The Rise controlled possession 58 per cent of the match and outshot the visitors 9-6 in goal attempts while Vancouver had the edge in shots on target, 2-1. Vancouver's Morgan McAslan registered the shutout, the second of the season as the Rise won their first game 1-0 against Calgary to open the season. Spencer's goal was a boon for the Rise getting production from a defender. The veteran, from Bay Shore New York, has previously played for the OL Reign, Orlando Pride, Western New York Flash, Angel City FC and Washington Spirit in the NWSL. The Rise had a significant advantage in attacking play, they notched 11 corners compared to the Tides' two. One of the few areas Halifax had the edge was in cautions by the referee, notching three of four yellow cards doled out on the night. The Rise are second in the early-season standings with six points, three behind undefeated Montreal. Their next game is against Toronto on Sunday where the hosts have one win and two losses on the season. UP NEXT Vancouver: Visits AFC Toronto on Sunday.
