# Association Plans: Sharing Across Your Organization

If your club or association uses HockeyShare, coaches can share practice plans with every member. Directors can build a curriculum once, and every coach can use it.

## Share a Plan with Your Association

Open your plan, click **Edit** and go to the **Sharing** tab. Under **Share with Associations**, check your association.

- Members can always **view, copy, print, email and share** the plan.
- Check **Allow association members to edit this plan** to let them change it directly. Only you can delete it.

Click **Save Sharing Settings**.

To share many plans at once, select them in **My Plans** and choose **Share → Share with Association**. Use **Unshare from Association** to stop sharing.

You can also share every new plan with your association automatically from **Plans → Plan Defaults**.

## Find Plans Shared with Your Association

Go to **Plans → Association Plans**. You'll see every plan shared with associations you belong to.

- **Search plans** – find a plan by keyword.
- **Shared by** – show plans from one coach.
- **Editable only** – show only plans you can edit.
- **Show my plans** – include plans you shared yourself.

## Use an Association Plan

Open a plan's menu (the sliders icon) to:

- **View** it, or **Edit** it if the owner allowed editing.
- **Make a Copy** – add your own copy to My Plans that you can change without affecting the original.
- **Add to Folder** – keep it with your other plans.

## Tips

- Directors: share your core plans with editing turned off, so coaches copy them instead of changing the originals.
- Coaches: make a copy before changing a shared plan, so you have your own version.
- Use clear titles like "U12 Week 3 – Edges & Passing" so coaches can find plans by search.
