About
Fond with Hockey is a mental-side training companion built for hockey players. It tracks the part of the game that never shows up on the scoresheet: the confidence that dipped after a bad shift, the shoulder you still don't trust, the coach who stopped calling your name, the penalty you took because you lost your temper at the blue line.
Two short habits do all the work. A daily check-in in under a minute, and a reflection after every practice or game. Over weeks those entries turn into a readable picture of how your season is actually moving.
DAILY CHECK-IN • Five sliders — confidence, focus, calm, body readiness, team connection • Sleep hours, an optional note, and a tag for the issue that's loudest today • Streak tracking so the habit holds through a long season
FOND PATHS • Structured multi-day programmes built from the issues you name • Two-to-six-minute tools: breathing, writing, rehearsal, behavioural checklists, reviews • Paths for Coach Relationship, Return From Injury, Discipline & Penalties, Confidence, Focus, Match Pressure, Role In The Team, Recovery & Sleep and more • A coach-relationship path takes you from naming what you want to scripting a ninety-second conversation and reviewing how it went • An injury path separates pain from fear and builds a graded confidence ladder
POST-SESSION REFLECTIONS • Log session type, minutes, physical load, penalties taken and a composure rating • Write what went right, what rattled you, and one thing for next session • Flag body areas and link the session to a background issue • Filter history by practice, game, gym, skills or rehab
PROGRESS • Trend lines for all five parameters across 7, 30, 90 days or the full season • Composure versus penalties comparison in plain language • Issue-pressure heatmap showing which issue dominates which days • Streak calendar, points breakdown and badge collection • A weekly digest naming what moved, what slipped and one suggested next step
FOCUS DRILL • Puck Sequence — a line-change memory drill that grows and speeds up • Produces a composure score that sits alongside your session ratings • See whether your drill scores track your in-game composure • Anonymous leaderboard for longest sequence held
POINTS, LEVELS AND BADGES • Fond Points for every check-in, path step, reflection and drill run • Twelve levels from Rookie to Hall • Twenty-four badges across streaks, composure, clean games and focus drills • A shared weekly challenge every player is working on at the same time
JOURNAL • One searchable place for every word you've written across check-ins, reflections and path steps • Optional Face ID lock
WORKS OFFLINE Check-ins, reflections, path steps, points, levels, badges and the drill all live on your device. No network needed for the daily loop. Only anonymous counts leave your phone — your notes and written reflections never do. There are no accounts, no passwords and no email required.
YOUR DATA • Export everything as a JSON file you can show a coach, physio or psychologist • Clear cached community data or delete everything at any time
IMPORTANT Fond with Hockey is a self-help tool. It does not diagnose or treat anything, and it is not a substitute for a doctor, physiotherapist, psychologist or team medical staff. The app includes a Help Resources section with conversation scripts and signs to take seriously.
