Heja is a communications and team-management platform for youth sports that helps coaches, parents, managers and players coordinate practices, matches, and media sharing. The app is free to use with an optional pro plan that adds desktop access, payment tracking, attendance statistics, unlimited admins, and document sharing. Heja reports nearly 140,000 teams across 50 countries, with the US, UK, Australia and New Zealand among its largest markets; a parent survey cited 91% higher engagement and an estimated 4.1 million additional hours of sporting time. Founded in 2018 by Mikael Blix and Johan Berglund and headquartered in Stockholm, the company plans to use new funding for team growth, further product development, and expansion into new markets. The platform emphasizes increasing youth sports participation and the social and health benefits that follow.
