“Due to regulation changes with the Nova Scotia Alcohol and Gaming Division, all 50/50 ticket sales at Mooseheads home games will now be conducted online only via mobile device or at home, similar to the 2023 IIHF World Junior Championship in Halifax,” the foundation said in a statement.

The foundation also mentioned that this change will support the arena’s transition to a “cashless venue experience,” which aims to reduce congestion during intermissions.

The proceeds from the draws contribute to funding community initiatives and programs.

The Mooseheads’ first home game of the season is scheduled for October 4 against the Quebec Remparts.
