Updated August 6, 2026
These Terms and Conditions ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the From the Crease mobile application, website, and platform (collectively, the "Platform"), operated by FTC Sports Media LLC ("FTC Sports Media," "we," "us," or "our").
By downloading, accessing, or using the Platform, you agree to comply with and be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, you must not use the Platform.
The App is intended for use by goaltenders of all ages, including minors, often through participation in a hockey Organization.
As a matter of global company policy, if you are under the age of 16 — regardless of your location, and regardless of any lower age threshold that might otherwise apply under local law — you may only create an account or use any feature involving communication, content access, or user interaction after we have verified the consent of a parent or legal guardian, consistent with our Privacy Policy.
Certain Services may be provided through hockey associations, clubs, leagues, academies, or other hockey-related organizations ("Organizations").
Organizations may purchase subscriptions through FTC Sports Media LLC and provide access to authorized users, including coaches, athletes, instructors, and other participants.
If your account is provided through an Organization:
● Your access to certain Services may be managed through that Organization.
● The Organization may provide FTC Sports Media with information necessary to create and administer user accounts.
● Your access may end if your relationship with the Organization ends, if the Organization removes your access, or if the Organization's subscription expires.
● Organization accounts and access are provided solely for authorized users and may not be shared, transferred, or resold.
Organizations are responsible for ensuring they have the appropriate authority and permissions to provide user information to FTC Sports Media and to enroll users in the Services. Where an Organization provides FTC Sports Media with personal information about a user who is under 16, the Organization is responsible for first obtaining and documenting any required parent or guardian consent, and represents to FTC Sports Media that it has done so.
Authorized Organization administrators may assist with user administration and account management. Subscription purchases, seat allocation, seat adjustments, and billing changes are managed through FTC Sports Media LLC.
All content within the Platform, including text, videos, images, graphics, designs, trademarks, and logos, is the property of FTC Sports Media LLC or its licensors and is protected by copyright and other intellectual property laws.
You may not copy, distribute, reproduce, modify, publicly display, or create derivative works based on any content from the App without our prior written consent.
Use of the Platform does not grant you any ownership rights in the content or intellectual property available through the Services.
Users may capture screenshots or recordings for personal, non-commercial use, including sharing with other individuals.
All Platform content, including videos, audio, images, drills, graphics, text, screenshots, recordings, and related materials, remains the property of FTC Sports Media LLC or its licensors.
Users may not publish, sell, license, sublicense, monetize, modify, create derivative works from, or otherwise commercially exploit App content without FTC Sports Media LLC's prior written consent.
Platform content may not be used to train, test, develop, or improve any artificial intelligence, machine learning, or similar automated system, regardless of purpose.
FTC Sports Media LLC may suspend or terminate access and pursue available remedies for any unauthorized use of Platform content.
The Platform includes goaltending-related educational materials such as training advice, drills, videos, and instructional content (collectively, "Coaching Content").
This material is provided for educational and informational purposes only.
By using the Coaching Content, you acknowledge and agree that participation in physical activity involves inherent risks.
FTC Sports Media LLC is not responsible for any injury, loss, death, or damage that results from the use or misuse of Coaching Content provided through the Platform. Nothing in this Section limits liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, or for any other liability that cannot be excluded under applicable law (see Section 11A).
Any coaches, contributors, or third parties featured in the App are independent and not necessarily endorsed or vetted by FTC Sports Media.
You agree to use the Platform for lawful purposes only.
You must not:
● Use the Platform in any way that could damage, disable, overburden, or impair our servers or networks.
● Attempt to gain unauthorized access to any portion of the Platform, accounts, systems, or networks.
● Engage in conduct that interferes with another user's experience.
● Upload, share, or distribute harmful, abusive, or unlawful content through any in-app communication features.
● Share account credentials or allow unauthorized users to access your account.
● Attempt to bypass subscription restrictions, access paid content without authorization, or interfere with the operation of the Services.
Any feedback or communication exchanged between a coach and an athlete through the App is automatically moderated to help maintain a safe environment. Where moderation identifies an immediate safety risk, we may take automated action right away, such as pausing a conversation or alerting our safety team, to contain the risk. Any suspension, termination, or other punitive action taken against your account as a result of moderation is reviewed by a person before it is finalized.
If the athlete is under 16, the athlete's verified parent or guardian will receive a weekly transcript or summary of the feedback exchanged between the coach and the athlete, for transparency, accountability, and safety. By using the App to communicate with an athlete you know or should know is under 16, you acknowledge and agree that such communications will be moderated and made available to that athlete's verified parent or guardian on this basis.
Either a coach or an athlete may block the other party at any time, which immediately ends further communication between them. Blocking does not retract a transcript already delivered to a guardian and does not shorten the retention period that otherwise applies to the underlying moderation records for that connection.
See our Privacy Policy (Section 4A) for more information about how we process this information.

If any provision of these Terms is held to be invalid or unenforceable, that provision shall be removed or interpreted, if possible, in a manner as to be enforceable, and the remaining provisions shall remain in effect.
