Gene and Elaine Williams founded Athletes Untapped to link aspiring athletes with vetted private coaches for one-on-one training. As former college athletes and private coaches, they loved mentoring kids but noticed a lack of tools for coaches to grow their reach. Inspired by platforms like Airbnb and Rover, they built AU to empower coaches and transform young athletes’ lives. Backed by their experience in tech and sports, Gene and Elaine aim to expand access to impactful coaching that helps young athletes excel both on and off the field.
At Athletes Untapped, private football lessons focus on developing both skill and mental toughness. Coaches challenge players with drills that push them to overcome adversity while refining techniques like tackling and passing. Position-specific training helps quarterbacks, linemen, and other athletes excel in their roles, creating well-rounded players ready to succeed.
“If you or your child are serious at all about getting better at the QB position, you have a golden opportunity right in front of you. He blends the nuances of the position with many different drills that are both fun and challenging. We’ve covered so many things from footwork, ball placement, displacing the hip, and mesh technique. The best part, he’s an even better young man and is an inspiration for my son.”
“He is getting my 14 yr old ready for high school football. My son is hoping to be starting quarterback next season. They are working on footwork, mechanics, reading defense & speed & agility. Looking forward to continued training.”
“We just had our first session and I can’t say enough great things. My son is playing tackle for the first time as an offensive lineman and his session with Coach helped him tremendously. It’s hard to find a good offensive line coach and we feel fortunate to have found him.”
The coaches at AU are highly skilled professionals with a passion for the game and a dedication to helping players reach their full potential. Their extensive experience allows them to understand your unique challenges and develop personalized strategies to address them.
