Athletes Untapped bridges the gap between young athletes and certified private coaches for personalized, face-to-face training. Founded by Gene and Elaine Williams, former college athletes and a passionate husband-and-wife duo, the platform grew out of their firsthand experience as private coaches. Their coaching journey inspired them to create a solution for other coaches to grow their businesses—similar to how Airbnb empowers property owners or Rover supports dog walkers. Leveraging their expertise in both sports and technology, Gene and Elaine aim to help countless young athletes unlock their full potential through high-quality coaching.
Pickleball has become one of the fastest-growing sports, but for beginners, mastering the game can be challenging. Private lessons with an Athletes Untapped coach focus on essential skills like technique, positioning, and dinking. Special attention is given to touch and placement during dinks to create scoring opportunities. Court positioning is also emphasized to help players anticipate shots and react with precision.
