Athletes Untapped connects parents/kids with vetted private coaches for in-person training. The platform was created by Gene & Elaine Williams - a married couple who both played college sports. Once their playing days ended, they started private coaching to stay involved with the game and earn extra income - and they loved it! Realizing there wasn't a go-to platform meant to help private coaches scale their business - like Airbnb does with rentals or Rover for dog walkers - Gene & Elaine decided to build AU. They've seen the impact private coaching can make on a young athlete's life trajectory, so that's why they're using their backgrounds in tech & coaching to help millions of young athletes succeed through coaching.
Athletes Untapped offers private soccer training that prioritizes footwork, ball handling, and fitness to create well-rounded athletes. Players gain confidence and skill through lessons that improve coordination, quickness, and decision-making. Our experienced coaches, many of whom trained privately, bring personalized techniques to help players succeed on the field.
“My son has had 2 soccer lessons and loves it already! He develped a rapport almost immediately. I can already see how much value this will add to my son’s game.”
“My son just finished his first session with I was blown away. He brought enthusiasm and encouragement while teaching the game. My son had well over 1,000 touches in the one hour session. We can’t wait to continue soccer training.”
“My daughter felt so comfortable right away and had the best time. She said ‘that was so much fun’ at least ten times on the ride home. I was reading in my car but would look up now and then and it was almost like my daughter improved over the hour! We are really looking forward to booking a bunch more soccer lessons!”

“Coach Soutiri encourages my son to go further than he normally would. It gives my son confidence, which we as parents try to do but doesn’t always work. I believe my son has developed the confidence he needed to play his favorite sport again. “
” My son’s only prior experience was two years of little league baseball, but his confidence has changed drastically since working with Jake. I highly recommend Jake – he is hands down one of the best sports instructors I have ever encountered!”
“Alex is a phenomenal coach!! She immediately identified the things my boys needed to work on and made it fun for them. She was able to make a significant change in my boys dribbling technique in the first session. Highly recommend!!”
