Rinkmate

The hockey team app for ice times, lines and rink dues

Hockey teams run on early ice, a goalie nobody can find and a rink bill that has to be split. Rinkmate gives your team one place for all of it.

Ice times that change every week

Beer-league and youth hockey schedules rarely repeat. Post every game and practice with the rink, the sheet and the arrival time, and your players answer in, out or maybe in one tap. You see the headcount before you have to pay for the ice.

Know you have a goalie

The question that kills hockey nights: who is in net? The roster shows each player's position next to their RSVP, so you can see at a glance whether a goalie has confirmed instead of scrolling a group chat to find out.

Build lines on a rink

Place players into forward lines, defense pairs and the goalie slot on a rink diagram, then publish. Save and share posts the lines into team chat so nobody has to ask who they are skating with.

Split the ice bill

Create a dues request for the season or a single tournament, and see who has paid at a glance. Rinkmate tracks who owes what; you settle up the way your team already does.

A hockey season, start to finish

Picture a Sunday-night rec team that rents ice at 9:15 pm. On Monday the manager posts the next four games with the rink and sheet. By Wednesday seven skaters have answered in and the goalie is still quiet, which is the cue to text him directly instead of the whole group. Friday the lines go up as a rink diagram and land in team chat, so Saturday’s argument about who is on defense never happens. At the end of the month the ice bill is a dues request, and the manager can see who has covered their share without a single "who owes me?" message.

Hockey team app: common questions

Does Rinkmate work for beer league, youth and adult rec hockey?

Yes. Managers, coaches, parents and players each get the right level of access, and one person can be on several teams at once, which suits skaters who play in more than one league.

Can I set lines for each game?

Yes. Hockey teams get a rink layout with forward lines, defense pairs and a goalie slot. Lineups are saved per game, and published lines can be shared straight into team chat.
