RBC knows it takes a lot to make hockey happen, so we'd like to help those who work hard so we can all just play.

RBC Play Hockey^™ offers grants to community hockey organizations, sports associations and hockey-minded individuals with great ideas to grow the game and keep hockey vital across North America. The program is focused on helping build and encourage hockey at all levels, from the ground up. In conjunction with our sponsorship partners Hockey Canada and USA Hockey, the RBC Play Hockey^™ Grants program is the first of its kind to support hockey across the continent.

Support will be provided to a variety of hockey initiatives with an emphasis on those that:

• Increase access to the game of hockey
• Break down barriers to entry
• Introduce the game to newcomers to North America
• Keep hockey growing and vibrant

RBC Play Hockey projects could include:

• Learn to skate programs
• Equipment-share programs
• Recruiting and training for coaches, referees and volunteers
• Arena refurbishments and capital project investment
• Hockey festivals
• School skating programs

If you are making a difference for hockey in your community or know someone who is, we'd like to assist. Contact us at rbcplayhockey@rbc.com and tell us why your local program is deserving of an RBC Play Hockey grant and how RBC can help.

Behind most goals, there’s an assist!
