The reality facing Canadian hockey families:
Minor hockey associations know the reality. Registration numbers are declining. Cost is the number one reason families leave the game — or never start. And the cost of hockey equipment is one of the biggest drivers.
The answer isn't only a subsidy or a fundraiser. While those help, there is a bigger opportunity already sitting in your families' basements and garages — used hockey equipment that other families in your association need. Hockey Gear Exchange connects them — it doesn't cost families more, it gives them savings back. See what your families experience →
Hockey Gear Exchange is a self-reinforcing value engine — each benefit feeds the next. The more families participate, the more value the platform creates for your association and the families who depend on it.
Hockey Gear Exchange isn't a public marketplace. It's a private, walled-garden platform — activated by your association, accessible only to your verified member families.
Families transact with people they already know. That trust — the kind you've built over years of running your association — becomes the foundation of the marketplace.
Families handle transactions privately. No payment processing, no fees on sales. Every dollar saved stays in your community.
When families can't find it used, we compare prices on new skates and sticks across top Canadian retailers — so your families are saving at every step of the gear-buying journey.
Sign up and receive unique team codes for every team in your association. Takes less than 15 minutes to get set up.
Share team codes with families through your existing communication channels — email, TeamSnap, or however you connect with members.
Families set up their Gear Locker, list outgrown equipment, and browse personalized recommendations — all within your private marketplace.
Your association dashboard shows listings, activity, and cumulative savings — so you can see exactly what value you're delivering to your families.
Families can donate gear they can't, or don't want to, sell directly through the app. You see every donation in your dashboard — who donated, what gear, and when. Mark items collected once they're picked up. Use this gear to help underprivileged communities in your area or donate to local causes. Your association helping your greater community.
Hockey Gear Exchange gives associations a simple, organized way to channel donated equipment beyond your own families — to underprivileged kids in your area, local causes, or community programs that need it most. No more lost emails or Facebook posts. Every donation is logged, tracked, and ready to deploy where it matters. Your association truly begins to make hockey more accessible for all.
Not every piece of gear is available used — and that's okay. Hockey Gear Exchange now compares prices on new skates and sticks across top Canadian retailers, so your families are saving whether they're buying used or new.
Prices from top Canadian retailers are updated nightly to find your families the best price possible.
Families see every price side by side and buy direct from the retailer. No more tab-switching while trying to find a good deal.
Filter by brand, level, and size. The savings highlighted automatically. Find the best price, instantly.
It only takes a few families to make it pay for itself. Here's the math.
Hockey Gear Exchange pays for itself. Whether you run 10 teams or 100, it delivers meaningful savings to every family in your association — at every level of play.

Once you're onboarded — demo done and agreement signed — your association is up and running in under 30 minutes. We walk you through every step. Your coordinator creates the association, generates team codes for each team, and families can start listing and browsing gear right away. There's nothing to install, no IT required.
Not at all. Hockey Gear Exchange is built for the volunteer coordinators who run minor hockey associations — not IT departments. If you can send an email, you can run this platform. We handle all the technology, and ongoing support is included.
Yes — gear donations are built into the platform. Families can donate equipment they've outgrown directly through the app. You decide where it goes: families in need within your community, a local cause your association supports, or wherever fits your values. It's one of the ways Hockey Gear Exchange helps associations do more for their community.
Families get a private marketplace — browse used hockey gear listed by other families in your association, message sellers directly, and complete the transaction however works best for them. Every listing includes photos, condition, brand, size, and both the asking price and retail equivalent so the savings are clear. See the full family experience →
We price based on association size, so we're not broadcasting a number that doesn't fit your context. What we can say: the cost is straightforward, predictable, and a fraction of what platforms like TeamSnap charge — with no transaction fees on top. The ROI case is easy: if even a handful of families save hundreds of dollars on gear each season, the platform pays for itself many times over. Request a demo and we'll give you a number that fits your association →
