As a team of former athletes and coaches, we have firsthand knowledge of the profound impact that quality coaching can have – not just in improving performance but also in shaping a person’s character and approach to life. This is why we take our coach evaluation process so seriously. We believe that every athlete deserves a coach who is not only highly skilled but also trustworthy and committed to their development. To make this happen, we created a rigorous vetting system to ensure that every coach on our platform meets these high standards.

Our Coach Evaluation Criteria

To ensure that we are providing the best possible experience for our athletes, we have a comprehensive set of evaluation criteria that every coach must meet before being featured on our platform. First and foremost, all coaches are required to pass a background check. This is one of the first steps in our process, as we prioritize the trust and safety of our community. Coaches must also build a detailed profile that highlights their coaching and/or playing experience. This helps us verify their qualifications and gives athletes valuable insights into their expertise.

In addition, coaches are required to sync their payment information, ensuring that financial transactions are smooth and secure for all parties involved. They must also confirm their availability for training, which is displayed clearly on their profile, so athletes can easily find a time that works for them. We also require coaches to highlight their training locations, ensuring transparency about where lessons will take place. This information is crucial for athletes who want to know where they’ll be training, whether it’s at a gym, field, or another facility. Finally, coaches must agree to our Terms of Service, Privacy Policy, and the Coaches Agreement to ensure they understand and adhere to our platform’s guidelines and expectations.

The Review Process

Once a coach submits all their information, our skilled Coach Support team steps in to carefully review every aspect of their application. In fact, our acceptance rate for coaches is below 10%, meaning only the most qualified and dedicated individuals are selected to join our platform. This review process helps maintain the integrity of our platform and ensures that athletes are matched with coaches who will help them achieve their goals.

By adhering to these thorough criteria and maintaining a strong vetting process, Athletes Untapped is able to provide athletes with coaches who are not only qualified but also passionate about helping them succeed. We are committed to ensuring that every coach on our platform has the tools, skills, and integrity to make a positive impact on every athlete’s journey. Whether you’re looking to improve in a specific sport or develop life skills, the coaches we feature are here to guide you every step of the way.
