Never Play Without a Goalie Again
Problems MyPuck solves for captains and organizers
Eliminates Forfeits: Prevents lost ice fees and league penalties when your regular netminder is sick, injured, or away.
No More Text-Marathons: Replaces endless group chat inquiries with an automated booking system.
Skill Discrepancies: Prevents the frustration of landing a goalie who is either drastically under-skilled for your division or far over-qualified.
No Cash Hassles at the Rink: Handles all payment logistics online so you don't have to collect money from teammates in the dressing room.
Last-Minute Panic: Provides dynamic emergency coverage when a goalie cancels hours—or minutes—before puck drop.
How the booking process works
1. Request a Goalie: Enter arena, puck drop time, skill level, your name and team name (so the goalie can find you).
Submit your game details through the MyPuck App or web portal.
2. Automated Match & Dispatch: Algorithm targets available netminders within driving distance.
Our platform broadcasts the request to vetted goalies matching your needs.
3. Instant Confirmation: Goalie accepts and confirmations are sent to both the goalie and captain.
4. Game Time: Goalie checks in with the captain, fully equipped and ready to play.
Your goalie arrives 15-20 minutes before ice time. Payment is processed automatically in the background.
Skill-level matching
A balanced game relies on appropriate skill placement. MyPuck classifies goalies into structured tiers to ensure seamless integration:
Skill Level (C, D & E): Beginner to lower-intermediate. Ideal for lower level leagues, friendly pickup games, and instructional shinny.
Skill Level (B & C): Competitive recreational goalies with high school or competitive minor hockey experience.
Skill Level (A & AA): Former Junior, Collegiate, or high-tier competitive netminders suited for fast-paced, high-caliber leagues and tournaments.
How goalies are reviewed or vetted
To maintain quality standards across every match:
Background & Experience Screening: Goalies may be asked to submit a link to their EliteProspects or HockeyDB profiles for A and AA level games.
Post-Game Captain Ratings: After every game, team captains rate the goalie on punctuality, competitive balance, and sportsmanship.
Internal Reliability Scores: Our algorithm tracks attendance and on-time arrival rates.
What teams must provide
To ensure a positive experience for incoming goalies, captains and organizers agree to provide:
Clear Arena & Game Information: Accurate rink location, ice pad number, puck drop time, captains name and team name or name on the board.
Respectful Locker Room Environment: Safe, welcoming dressing room space and sportsmanship on the ice.
Zero Abuse Policy: Goalies are protected by MyPuck’s fair play guidelines. On-ice or verbal abuse results in immediate suspension of team booking privileges.
Payment and cancellation process
Transparent Flat Pricing: Game fees are clearly displayed prior to booking, with no hidden rink-side charges.
Secure Online Billing: Credit card payments are processed safely through the app or e-transfer.
Flexible Cancellation Window: Cancel free of charge up to 24 hours prior to puck drop (depending on peak/off-peak windows). Late team cancellations carry a standard fee to compensate the assigned goalie for their reserved time.
What happens when a goalie cancels or does not arrive
In the rare event an assigned goalie encounters an emergency or fails to check in:
Automated Emergency Reroute: The MyPuck system immediately re-opens the request with high-priority status to send a replacement goalie.
Real-Time Support: Our dispatch team coordinates directly with the captain to secure emergency coverage.
Full Protection Guarantee: If an replacement cannot be found before puck drop, your account is credited/refunded immediately, and future priority booking credits are applied to your team profile.
