Innovation isn’t just about new gadgets—it’s about redefining experiences, making things better, and breaking barriers. As part of Zen Launchpad’s Scale AI Acceleration Program, we’re diving into how HOCKEYBALL is transforming the way communities engage with the sport.
Reinventing Hockey for Everyone
When you think of hockey, what comes to mind? The crisp ice, the clash of sticks, the roar of the crowd? Now, what if hockey wasn’t just limited to the rink? Hockey is a game of speed, skill, and passion.
What if there was a way to make hockey more accessible, affordable, and inclusive for schools, communities, and sports groups around the world? That’s exactly what HOCKEYBALL is doing, a revolutionary approach to off-ice hockey that is set to change the game for schools, communities, and sports organizations alike.
A Modern Twist on a Classic Game
For years, gym hockey has been a go-to activity in schools and community centers, but it has remained largely unchanged. HOCKEYBALL believes it's time for an upgrade. By developing a complete suite of play tools, they’re not just providing equipment—they’re creating an entirely new way to experience hockey. Their goal? To enhance the game while increasing physical literacy among children and young athletes.
HOCKEYBALL’s innovative approach ensures that hockey is:
Low-cost – Making hockey more financially accessible for schools and families.
Inclusive – Encouraging participation from diverse communities.
Safe – Utilizing equipment designed for safety and skill development.
Green – Environmentally friendly solutions that promote sustainability.
Accessible – Bringing the game to more people, in more places, than ever before.
More Than Just Equipment—A Complete Ecosystem
Unlike competitors who focus solely on selling hockey sticks and balls, HOCKEYBALL takes things a step further. They provide a full ecosystem that includes:
Training & education – Lesson plans and certification platforms to guide players and coaches.
Leagues & tournaments – Structured play that fosters competition and teamwork.
AI-driven play environments – Custom experiences designed to keep players engaged.
This holistic approach is what sets HOCKEYBALL apart. It’s not just about selling gear—it’s about growing the game in a meaningful, sustainable way.
Backed by Hockey’s Best
With deep roots in the hockey industry, HOCKEYBALL has worked alongside NHL, AHL, and ECHL teams, as well as sports groups and community organizations. They've even teamed up with hockey legend Wayne Gretzky to create custom sticks and training for the Gretzky Hockey Schools for their off-ice program.
This has been a huge hit with thousands of young hockey players. Their experience and expertise allow them to seamlessly integrate their programs with professional teams, helping them connect with their fan base while growing the sport.

By focusing on education, community engagement, and innovative technology, HOCKEYBALL is breaking down barriers and making hockey more accessible than ever.
