About Us

The Government of Canada, the Province of Alberta, and the City of Calgary have provided funding support to host Play On! 2026: One Nation. With this support comes their invitation to us all to bring 300 teams together and to hold the largest street hockey event in Canada since 2017.

The event is also being supported by Hockey Alberta, Hockey Calgary, the Canadian Ball Hockey Association, and Ball Hockey Alberta.
With that, we are now on the Road to 300.
We invite teams of all ages, gender, and experience levels from across Calgary, from across Alberta, and from all parts of Canada to unite by playing the game we all love.
But One Nation is about more than what happens on the street.
Along with competition, community, and unforgettable memories, participants can look forward to our Celebrity Draft.

Donations support the Play On! Calgary 2026 community benefit framework, which benefits the Calgary Food Bank, Calgary Police Youth Foundation, and Play On!’s community programming.
Because when people come together around something they love, the impact reaches far beyond the final whistle.

This is Our Nation. This is Our Game.
