Whalers Against Racism

Whalers Against Racism

 

Dartmouth Whalers Minor Hockey Association stands behind the Halifax Hawks and agree there is no place for racism in hockey or in our society. We as an association want to show our support to Halifax and to any of our members who have been on the receiving end of discrimination.
 
To show our support and to help combat racism in our sport, we will be having Whalers Against Racism helmet stickers printed this week that will be provided to all Dartmouth Whalers members and distributed to each team.
 
Also this week while we work on distributing stickers, we are asking all teams to show their support by players taping their stick this week with red hockey tape. We ask that parents and coaches take this opportunity to talk about the importance of combating racism with our players, educating our youth is an important step in removing it.
 
If you hear a racist or discriminatory comment on or off the ice, speak up.
 
Call it out.
 
Report it.
 
It does not belong in hockey and it does not belong in our society
