The Nunavut Speed Skating Association (NSSA) is our territorial sporting organization dedicated to advancing the health, recreation, competitive spirit and fun of our members through the thrilling sport of short track speed skating. 

Located in the Arctic region of Canada, our members represent the diversity of the Inuit peoples of Nunavut from our three regions of the Qikiqtaaluk (Baffin), Kivalliq and Kitikmeot – the largest cultural group in our territory ~ as well as residents from across Canada and new Canadians, that call Nunavut home.

Our clubs are unique, as all of our communities are isolated fly-in communities, and our members and athletes speak a range of local Inuktut language dialects, from Inuktitut to Innuinaqtun, as well as English and French. Our unique geography, history and growing territory, which was established on April 1, 1999, makes us the youngest speed skating association in Canada ~ but guaranteed when you see us at competitions, we have the most spirit!
