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.
Private soccer lessons at Athletes Untapped emphasize key elements like footwork, ball control, and fitness to enhance overall performance. Coaches provide individualized attention to help players improve their quickness, coordination, and decision-making. Our experienced team, many of whom trained privately as young athletes, works to develop well-rounded players prepared for success at any level.
“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!”
The coaches at Athletes Untapped stand out as some of the most skilled and passionate in the industry. With years of experience, they understand the challenges athletes face and provide the guidance needed to overcome them. Whether it's refining technical skills, sharpening mental focus, or boosting confidence, they’re here to help you excel.
“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!!”
