Why We Created Athletes Untapped

We love to provide young athletes with better opportunities to succeed.

Hi, I’m Gene. My wife and I both played college/pro sports, and after our careers ended, we discovered a passion for private coaching. There’s nothing more rewarding than helping athletes untap their full potential and gain confidence, both in sports and life. That’s why we created Athletes Untapped - to connect millions of athletes with local, vetted coaches. After reaching our own athletic goals and helping countless others do the same, we’re here to support you (or your child) on your journey!
