Athletes Untapped connects parents/kids with vetted private coaches for in-person training. The platform was created by Gene & Elaine Williams - a married couple who both played college sports. Once their playing days ended, they started private coaching to stay involved with the game and earn extra income - and they loved it! Realizing there wasn't a go-to platform meant to help private coaches scale their business - like Airbnb does with rentals or Rover for dog walkers - Gene & Elaine decided to build AU. They've seen the impact private coaching can make on a young athlete's life trajectory, so that's why they're using their backgrounds in tech & coaching to help millions of young athletes succeed through coaching.
Pickleball recently took the sports world by storm, but learning how to play can be difficult for newcomers. Training with an Athletes Untapped pickleball coach will help you understand technique, positioning, dinking, and much more. Mastering the dink is crucial for creating opportunities and keeping opponents on their toes, so instructors focus on refining touch and placement. Equally important is understanding court positioning - knowing where to stand helps players anticipate shots and react effectively. By honing these skills in private or small group lessons, pickleball players can enhance their play, boost their confidence, and truly enjoy the competitive spirit of the sport.
