Gene and Elaine Williams, both college sports alumni and dedicated private coaches, founded Athletes Untapped to connect families with trusted private trainers for one-on-one coaching. After enjoying years of coaching themselves, they realized a tool to help coaches scale—like Airbnb for rentals—was missing. Drawing on their passion for sports and tech, they launched AU to fill that gap. Their goal is to help millions of young athletes thrive by providing easy access to impactful coaching that shapes not just skills but also future opportunities.
Basketball training at Athletes Untapped ensures a focus on dribbling, shooting, and mental toughness. Our experienced coaches, many of whom are former athletes, emphasize technique, consistency, and confidence-building during every session. By preparing players for challenges on and off the court, they help athletes succeed in all aspects of the game.
