A coach in the garage
Puckmaxxing isn't a video library kids have to motivate themselves through. It runs the session.
1
Watch how
Each new drill opens with a short narrated walkthrough: how to set up, body position, where the ball goes and which part of the blade touches it.
Drill intro · 3 of 4
Toe Drags
Roll your top hand to cup the ball with the toe, then pull it in.
2
Do the work
Real timers you can't skip, spoken coaching cues, and a tap to start and finish each set. It keeps working with the screen dimmed.

Climb the ladder
Sessions on different days earn promotions, one skill at a time. Streaks, badges and a gap to close keep kids coming back.

3 days to AA test
12-day streak
Four skills. Four ladders.
A player can be AA in Shooting and House in Edges. Seeing that gap is what gets kids training the thing they'd rather skip.
Shooting
Wrist shots, snap shots and backhands into a net at home, with a quick release and accuracy.
Edges & Athleticism
Balance, agility and single-leg strength. The off-ice base a strong stride is built on.
Strength & Core
Bodyweight squats, lunges and planks matched to age. No weights, ever.
House to Pro, earned
Every player starts at House. Training on different days opens the next rung, and above A a short Level-Up Test the app times itself has to be passed too.
Days prove the habit. The test proves the skill.
A missed test names the one movement to work on. It never says “failed”.

Ranks slip slowly if training stops, and one session holds them. Vacation mode pauses that, and no rank ever drops below A.
Built for the parent paying for it
Your job is setup and a quick check-in. Puckmaxxing handles the rest, and never pushes kids into comparing themselves with anyone else.
Approve promotions in one tap
Or ask for two more sessions first. If you're busy, it approves itself after a few days.
A weekly email
What your player trained, what moved and what's next, every Monday morning.
No leaderboards, no friend feeds
Players only ever see their own progress.
Minimal data, no ads
No photos, location or surnames. No third-party analytics.
Cancel in a couple of taps
No phone calls, no hoops, no guilt-trip screens.
Questions parents ask
What equipment do we need?
A hockey stick, a ball or practice puck, a net, and about 8 by 8 feet of floor. Tape or a shoe works as a marker. Nothing else to buy.
Does it train skating?
No, and we won't pretend it does. Skating happens on ice. Edges & Athleticism builds the balance, edge control and leg strength that a strong stride depends on.
What ages is it for?
Players 7 to 17. Sessions run about 12 minutes for younger players and up to 20 for teens. Drills are matched to the player's level, not their age.
Does my child need an email or password?
No. You create the account. Your player types a six-character code on their own phone or tablet and they're in. You can unlink a device anytime.
What data do you collect about my child?
A nickname, birth year, an avatar colour and their training sessions. Never photos, location, surnames or anything they type. No ads, and we don't use third-party analytics.
How does a player move up?
Training on different days earns the chance to move up, one skill at a time. Above A, a short Level-Up Test the app times itself has to be passed too: days prove the habit, the test proves the skill.
Can players cheat the timer?
The work timer can't be skipped, and players tap to start and finish each set. Reps they report only change how hard their next session is, so there's nothing to gain by fibbing.
How much does it cost?
Pricing is being set for launch. There will be a free way to start, and cancelling will take a couple of taps, with no phone calls and no tricks.
