Very Basic

If the export to PDF was a a little cleaner I would use this app but not useful for me.

App is great for coaches, and gets updated promptly!

5 stars, thanks for creating a tool that can help so many coaches out there!

Can’t export to PDF

I’ve made my drills and input them to a practice plan. When I click on Share & Practice PDF, nothing happens. How do I export to PDF so I can email my staff?

Best App For Drills And Plans

I’ve probably tried them all and this is the best. No other app gives you the abilities and freedoms this does with drills. Plus you can categorize your drills based on your own descriptions. It’s completely customizable. Then you can build plans and a “script” noting time for each drill. Emailing the plan as a PDF is awesome and being able to print from the app is great too. The only feature I’d like to see added is the ability to copy/paste a whole plan to edit the new one. I run a progressive cycle of drills building on the previous plan that has me repeating some drills for a few practices before substituting it out for another. Being able to copy a whole plan would really help in this case. Thanks for continuing to support this app!!

Responsive Developer!

Immediately replied and described the fix and how to make the app return to its great glory. Best practice planning app out there! Thanks!

Response from developer

Sorry to hear you are having issues. I have tested these features with the new version of Hockey ClipPad 6.1 and iOS 13. Sharing of PDFs and App-2-App are working as expected. Please note, these features depend on the built in Mail App on the iPad to send Hockey ClipPad attachments via email. Users that use a different email app on the iPad (i.e. Outlook) will lose sharing capabilities. If you setup an account for the built-in Mail App sharing capabilities should be restored.

Great App

It is easy to use and keeps all of your plans sorted and reusable. Highly recommend!

Perfect app!

I love being able to create, explain and draw up plays. Also keeping a data base of drills makes life so much easier. I just print it to PDF and email to assistant coach before practice. Love it!

Great App

Great coaching app! I use this to build my teams season of practices as well as work with my Lineups. Allows easy sharing between my bench staff. Almost the only iPad tool I need for coaching my teams.

Update crashes

On my Ipad2, Every update since 4.1 leads to a crash. New Practice plans not saving. Old practice plans can not be retrieved. Please revert back to 4.1. Nothing but good things to say about this APP, up until the latest string of updates. Very frustrating with work lost.

Awesome!

This makes creating and sharing practice plans so easy!

2016-12-04 Great Update! Thank you so much for keeping the app perfect.

Still using this wonderful app. However I need an update. Can you add to the line up function s penalty kill (PK) line and a power play (PP) line? It would tremendously help

Works great on iPad pro with pencil

This app works really well, whether you use your finger or the new Apple pencil. When using the pencil, there's a bit of space between the tip of the pencil and the symbol, but it will land wherever you see it on the screen. Drawing with the pencil is perfect. Very easy to create well-illustrated plays and drills.

Good app, could use a few additions...

Great app for developing a practice plan, however the following would make it much better:
- use of international hockey drill symbols including backward skating, lateral crossovers, pivoting, etc.
- ability to add time per specific drill - only had total practice duration
- ability to sync and use on iPad and on computer/laptop

No drill library

A little awkward to save, delete, copy...UI could use improvements. Drills are easy to create - a stylus is recommended although its possible to use your finger. Creating practice plans was easy, but could use some quick drills (not from library - just comments). One of the big issues is that there is no online, downloadable drill library. Yes, drills are easy to share, but unless you have many coaches using this, you will be making most of the drills yourself.

Must have

Great app for first time and veteran coaches. Easy to create, modify, share and combine.

excellent app support

I had a question on functionality. Contacted the developer who replied asap with the answer I was looking for. Really helpful app for this youth hockey coach!

Pick this app - it is excellent,

I test drove a few hockey drill creation apps and settled on Hockey Clippad about a year ago.

It is actively maintained, and I have not had any noticeable bugs and I have over 150+ drill designs/captures. My daughters also like playing on it and capturing their own drills.

The pre game lesson plan drill selection and email option is great and works very well for sending the plan quickly and easily to my on ice coaches. The drill categories and search are well done.

Drill creation and entry is also very intuitive, and the resulting drills are clearly understood on the print outs.

About the only feature I would request would be a slideshow full screen mode so the drills for the practice that day which could be easily shown full screen on the iPad in the locker room

An excellent app for coaches!

Not the best :(

For the half ringette ice you forgot the little red line overtop go the circles

J’aime...

Pas évident à utiliser au départ, mais lorsqu’on commence à l’apprivoiser, ce logiciel vaut son pesant d’or… Je laisse 4 étoiles, car je crois que l’auteur peut faciliter son utilisation… J’aimerais beaucoup pouvoir déplacer mes lignes, sans être obligé de les effacer et les recommencer...

Great production app

Great for quick drill thoughts and so versitile . Wireless printer makes a travelling hockey school a breeze.
