Share Your Passion, Coach on Your Terms.
Athletes Untapped is the nation’s #1 platform for private sports coaching. Think of us like Airbnb or Rover - we help you connect with athletes in your area, handle bookings and payments through our platform, and let you focus on what you do best: coaching. It’s a flexible way to earn extra income or expand your client base, with coaches setting their own rates, schedules, and training locations.
We’re proudly owner-operated by former pro athletes & coaches who know how impactful great training can be. The position is listed as remote but lessons are conducted in-person with athletes near you. Wherever you’re based across the country, we’ll help you find local athletes and grow your coaching business!
This role is perfect for current/former college and pro athletes, college/high school/club coaches, and experienced private trainers. It’s also a great fit for anyone with a strong sports background who loves working with kids and wants to make a difference through coaching.
What You’ll Do
- Run 1:1 and small group lessons - from beginner to advanced levels
- Set your own rates (typically ranges anywhere from $50–$100/hour)
- Choose your availability and training location (parks, fields, courts, indoor, etc.)
- Use our platform tools for all communication, scheduling, and payments
- Build long-term relationships with athletes and families
- Commit to being active on the platform for at least 12 months (it can take a few weeks for new coaches to gain real traction - success doesn't happen overnight!)
