Gene and Elaine Williams founded Athletes Untapped to link aspiring athletes with vetted private coaches for one-on-one training. As former college athletes and private coaches, they loved mentoring kids but noticed a lack of tools for coaches to grow their reach. Inspired by platforms like Airbnb and Rover, they built AU to empower coaches and transform young athletes’ lives. Backed by their experience in tech and sports, Gene and Elaine aim to expand access to impactful coaching that helps young athletes excel both on and off the field.
Private football training helps young athletes master essential skills like passing, tackling, and footwork. Athletes Untapped coaches focus on technique and resilience, challenging players with drills that simulate real game scenarios. With a variety of position-specific trainers, athletes can refine their abilities and prepare for success on and off the field.
“If you or your child are serious at all about getting better at the QB position, you have a golden opportunity right in front of you. He blends the nuances of the position with many different drills that are both fun and challenging. We’ve covered so many things from footwork, ball placement, displacing the hip, and mesh technique. The best part, he’s an even better young man and is an inspiration for my son.”
“He is getting my 14 yr old ready for high school football. My son is hoping to be starting quarterback next season. They are working on footwork, mechanics, reading defense & speed & agility. Looking forward to continued training.”
“We just had our first session and I can’t say enough great things. My son is playing tackle for the first time as an offensive lineman and his session with Coach helped him tremendously. It’s hard to find a good offensive line coach and we feel fortunate to have found him.”
Our AU coaches are at the top of their game, with extensive experience and a genuine love for mentoring athletes. They understand the challenges players encounter and offer tailored guidance to overcome them. By focusing on technical improvement, mental strength, and confidence, they help pave the way for your success.
“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!!”
