Athletes Untapped is the go-to platform for connecting young athletes with professional private coaches for tailored, in-person training.

Inspired by platforms like Airbnb, AU simplifies the process of finding quality coaching while supporting young athletes' growth. Gene and Elaine’s commitment to sports and tech drives their mission to make private coaching accessible and impactful for families everywhere.

“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. Thanks Coach Soutiri!”
“My son has been receiving baseball lessons with Jake for the last couple of months, and I couldn’t be happier. After each lesson, Jake sends a detailed report of everything he did during the lesson, including homework (baseball skills) for my son to work on and pertinent videos to show proper form for mastery. 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. I personally like that she educates and also makes sure they execute skills properly and not just letting them slide. She was able to make a significant change in my boys dribbling technique in the first session. Highly recommend!!”
