Detailed Review
Heja does one job in a small number of screens: it lists practices and games, asks every player or parent to reply, and keeps the conversation in the same place. The free plan gives a team schedule, RSVP tracking, messaging with read status and file sharing, with a single team admin.
The contracting company, according to the terms of use, is Heja Sports AB, a Swedish company with an address in Stockholm. The app is a team product rather than a club system, so what it adds beyond the free tier is mainly admin convenience for a coach.
What the free plan covers
Scheduling, RSVP replies with automatic reminders, team messaging and document sharing are all free. The cost is advertising inside the app and a limit of one team administrator, though the role can be passed on.
Clubs and fundraising
The pricing page invites clubs with several teams to talk to sales for a club deal. A separate fundraising section exists on the site; we did not review how it works or what it costs.
Limitations to Consider
Heja is a team tool, not a club system: the pages we read describe no member database, membership fees or club website. The free tier is ad-supported with a single admin, and paid prices are quoted in US dollars. Where the data is hosted is not stated on the pages we read.
Who Should Use Heja
A coach or parent organiser running one or two teams who wants schedules and replies in a phone app, without paying for features a club board would need.
