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.
