Built for the rink, not just one team
TeamSnap and BenchApp start with captains. Hockey Line Leagues runs every league at your rink from one dashboard — adult, youth, and in-house — with a public /r/your-rink hub.
Rink data in the team app
Schedule, live scores, standings, and line management in one free app. BenchApp also does lines — we differentiate with live rink scoring tied to public league pages.
Flat rink pricing vs per-team bills
BenchApp charges ~$10/team/month. HockeyShift stats scale with team count. We charge $150/mo flat for unlimited leagues and teams — predictable for multi-league rinks.
