Power Play
Power Play is a free, weekly program that provides children and youth ages 6-17 with the opportunity to learn how to play hockey and soccer with Calgary Police Service officers in a safe and supportive environment.
Power Play helps to foster trust and understanding between the police and members of diverse and marginalized communities while helping to make sport available to those who may not have ready access to recreational sport.

Vesko’s Story
Vesko came to Power Play facing some personal struggles. He was lonely and was searching for friendship and connection.
Vesko had never skated before coming to Power Play but was eager to learn! Through his strength and perseverance, Vesko is now a great skater and regularly engages fellow participants in games on the ice.
Vesko has also really come out of his shell at Power Play. He has made a ton of new friends on and off the ice, and prides himself on never leaving anyone out of the fun.
