Play On! - Street Hockey
Play On! is a Canadian national street hockey festival founded in Halifax, Nova Scotia in 2003.

Street hockey is a favourite Canadian sport and pastime. Play On! is a highly organized, large scale, and all-inclusive showcase of the sport.

Founder Scott Hill selected the name "Play On!" when his original plan to use the name "Game On!" (the phrase most commonly used between competitors before a street hockey game is set to begin, made most famous in the movie Wayne's World) was challenged legally by the National Hockey League. Scott settled on the name Play On! as an alternative aligned with his desire to encourage all Canadians to play street hockey, ice hockey, and other sports generally.

The Play On! street hockey festival has grown from humble beginnings to having now operated in a total of 27 Canadian cities involving over 2 million Canadians. It holds the Guinness world record (2013) as the largest street hockey tournament in the world, and has been sponsored by the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation since 2007.
