Where MyPlayer is strong
- Same entry philosophy as RinkLog: a parent tracking their own kid, one tap at a time, from the stands
- Import a game from a photo of a scoresheet or schedule, to save time
- Real-time co-parent sharing (paid): two phones editing the same player during the game
- Goalie stats taken seriously from the free tier (saves, save percentage, goals-against average)
- Trading-card-style stat cards, with extra styles behind the paywall
Where RinkLog plays differently
- The analytics are not in the same class: RinkLog computes expected goals (xG), percentiles by age group and ice time shift by shift; MyPlayer shows totals and trends
- On charts it is not even a comparison: RinkLog draws shot heat zones on the rink, net heat zones and the goalie's ice map, a shot-type wheel, trend curves, radar and faceoff zones; MyPlayer has no shot map and no heat zone, only curves of totals
- Neither is the price: MyPlayer's annual Premium costs $49.99 CAD (and $79.99 CAD for the family plan); RinkLog Premium costs $12.99 CAD per year at the founding price with TWO players included, and Franchise covers five for $29.99
- RinkLog also lives on the web: the family sees the full picture from any browser and the player profile shares by link; MyPlayer has no web app and no web profile
- Progress becomes documents with RinkLog: an automatic monthly PDF report card and an AI analysis, where MyPlayer offers a one-page stat sheet
- Over 100 trophies and medals with their real rarity among members, versus a simple milestone case
- RinkLog works offline start to finish, proven in arenas with no signal; MyPlayer claims no offline mode at all
- RinkLog is bilingual French and English throughout; MyPlayer is English only
- RinkLog covers hockey, ball hockey and ringette, and it is built in Quebec, compliant with Law 25
RinkLog, the complete platform built around one player
MyPlayer and RinkLog share the same starting idea: the parent in the stands. The difference is in everything that comes after data entry. Here is what RinkLog builds around every tracked game:
Analytics with real depth, in living charts
Shot heat zones on the rink, net heat zones and an ice map for goalies, a shot-type wheel, expected goals (xG), percentiles by age group, ice time shift by shift, trend curves, radar and faceoff zones. Not totals in a table: dozens of animated visualizations that tell the progression, game after game.
Report cards and exports, automatically
A monthly PDF report card generated on its own, CSV and PDF export, and an AI analysis of your player's data. Tracking becomes a document you can hand to a coach.
Player cards, trophies and medals
Themed player cards that even export as video, 100+ trophies and medals with their real rarity among members, and a public profile grandparents can open from a link.
Everywhere, on all your devices
iOS, Android, web and an installable PWA: one account signs in everywhere, everything syncs, and the family sees the full picture from anywhere. Dad taps at the rink, mom watches from the couch.
Truly offline
The whole game can be tracked with zero signal, start to finish, even without opening the app before walking into the arena. Everything syncs on its own when the network comes back.
Built for the family, not just one profile
Up to 2, 5 or 20 players on one account depending on the plan: siblings, one kid's ringette and the other's ball hockey, all in one place. A player calendar with reminders and an .ics feed, plus off-ice training programs included.
A price that respects families
Free for life to start, no credit card. Premium at $12.99 CAD per year at the founding price ($19.99 after): about a dollar a month, less than one arena coffee per tournament weekend.
