The Big Play
Hockey brings Canadians together. Our national pastime teaches teamwork, self-confidence and keeps us active. Sadly, many kids are missing out on all the benefits of hockey because they can't afford to participate. So, Canadian Tire Jumpstart Charities and the Hockey Canada Foundation are committing to get 30,000 kids in the game over the next three years. Together, we will give more children the chance to play.
