There are a few ways to share a plan. Pick the one that fits who you're sending it to.
- Players and parents – send a share link or email the plan. They don't need a HockeyShare account.
- Another coach on HockeyShare – use Send to User. They get their own copy to edit.
- Your team or association – turn on team sharing or association sharing.
Turn On Share Links
Share links let anyone view your plan without logging in. Open your plan, click Edit, then go to the Sharing tab.
- Enable public share links – turns the links on. Turn it off and the links stop working right away (anyone who opens one sees Not Found). Turn it back on any time. The link stays the same.
- Expire the links automatically – pick the last day the links work. It defaults to the day after your practice.
Scroll down to Share Links and click Copy next to the link you want:
- Desktop Share Link – for computers and tablets.
- Mobile Share Link – sized for phones. Best for players and parents.
Click Save Sharing Settings when you're done.
You can turn share links on (or set them to expire) for every new plan in Plans → Plan Defaults.
Copy a Link from the Plan Page
On the plan page, click Share. Choose PDF Share Link or Mobile Share Link to copy it. Paste it into a text, team app or group chat.
Email a Plan
Click Email on the plan page.
- Edit the Subject if you want, and add an optional Message.
- Add Recipients. Type email addresses, pick one of My Lists, or choose Team Members. Click Save as List to reuse a group of addresses later.
- Click Preview Email to check it, then Send Email.
The email includes your plan's share links, so share links need to be turned on first.
Send a Plan to Another Coach
Use Send to User to give another HockeyShare coach their own copy of the plan.
- Click Send to User on the plan page.
- Enter their HockeyShare username and click Verify.
- Click Send.
The plan shows up in their Plan Inbox. Once they add it, they have their own copy and can change it without affecting yours. The drills stay linked to your originals.
If your plan has video clips they don't have access to, those clips show as unavailable in their copy.
Plan Inbox
Go to Plans → Plan Inbox to see plans other coaches have sent you.
- Add to My Plans – adds a copy to your account.
- Decline – removes it from your inbox.
- Sent tab – plans you've sent. Click Un-send to take one back before it's been added.
Share with Your Team or Association
Both options are on the Sharing tab.
- Make available on team sharing page – the plan shows up in your team's shared plans, where team members can view it.
- Share with Associations – members of the associations you pick can view and copy the plan. Check Allow association members to edit this plan to let them make changes. Only you can delete it.
Tips
- Send players and parents the mobile link. It's easier to read on a phone.
- Set links to expire if a plan is only for one practice.
- Turning share links off doesn't delete anything. Turn them back on any time and the same link works again.
- Want to change a plan another coach sent you? Add it to My Plans first. You'll be editing your own copy.
