Real-World Example

From Sunday Planning Chaos to Automated Session Generation

Coach Anderson manages an ice hockey team with 28 players and used to spend Sunday evenings creating practice plans in Word documents. He'd hunt through old files, wonder if he's covering the right skills for different positions, and scramble to remember who needs extra work on specific skating techniques or defensive positioning for the upcoming week.

With Striveon's Training Events, Anderson's weekly sessions are automatically generated from his season plans. Each event includes skill targets (power play focus this week), assigned players with their development notes, and relevant drills from his library. When he needs to adjust for ice conditions or equipment issues, changes take 3 minutes instead of 60 minutes of replanning.

Result: Anderson saves 6 hours weekly on planning and delivers more purposeful sessions that consistently advance his season objectives while addressing individual player development needs across all positions.
