    Yes, most likely this was disabled by your IT folks, so talk to them.

    Hi derekchan-8110,

    It seems that the admin restricts from creating a team. You need to work with your IT/Office 365 Admin to create/change the security group settings in Office 365 for your organization and then only the users in that security group will be able to create a teams in the apps.

    Teams is a part of Office 365. This means that an Office 365 security group set up to limit users from creating Office 365 Groups will carry over to Teams.

    The specific instructions for setting up these Office 365 Group permissions are found in the topic Manage who can create Office 365 Groups.

    In addition to the other replies, it is also worth noting that the calendar has separate functionality which has to be turned on manually by the administrators, along with permissions if these are not the default ones.
