  • “PDA thoroughly watches through your gameplay and dissects your shifts and spits out numbers you wouldn’t be able to on your own. I think every athlete should have PDA on their side to make them understand their strengths and weaknesses.”

    - Jacob Bultje (St. Andrews College)

  • “PDA, shows all aspects of the game, hockey IQ, or your skating, and it shows you how you can improve these things every-time you touch the ice. You even get to see the things your really good at, so you k ow you should continue to do those things.”

    - Michael Dec (Owen Sound Attack)

  • “PDA helps a ton with every aspect of your game, each clip that is in your video analysis helps you better understand what did right/wrong and either keep doing or improve on.”

    - Alex Boom (Port Colborne Sailors)

  • “PDA helped me understand which areas of my game I excelled in, as well as all the other areas that they thought I needed to improve in. The video analysis and breakdown they do makes it easy to see yourself from an outside perspective.”
