How we verify →

For parents

Good coaches,
verified first.

A person reads every application and checks each coach's experience and credentials before they're listed. Players under 18 connect with a parent's OK, and messaging opens once both sides say yes.

Reviewed by hand

No automated sign-up. A person approves every coach.

You choose

No algorithm picks for you, and nobody pays to rank higher.

Parents in the loop

Under-18s need a parent's OK, and parents hear when a session starts and ends.

1-on-1

An hour built around what you need to fix.

Small groups

Train with 2 to 12 players, led by the coach.

Pick a focus

Shooting, serving, putting, starts and more.

No cold DMs. Ever.

How it works

From sign-up
to your first session
in four steps.

Find

Browse coaches by what they coach and where. Every profile was approved by a person first.

Ask

Send a request with your goals and when you can train. The coach says yes or passes.

Plan

Once they say yes, your chat opens. Agree on a time and place in one thread.

Train

Show up and play. For players under 18, a parent gets an alert when the session starts and ends.

Why private training

Every session,
a step
forward.

With a private coach, every rep gets a look: technique, footwork, decisions, fixed on the spot and built on next time.

Standards

What it takes
to coach on Lynx.

Verified before listed

A person signs off
on every coach.

Credentials checked

Certifications, playing history and coaching experience are reviewed before approval, not taken on trust from a form.

Invisible until approved

A coach who hasn't been approved can't be found and can't message anyone.

Fair

No coach can
pay to rank.

Reports read by people

Every report goes to our team, not a bot. Outcomes range from a warning to permanent removal.

Messages open on yes

Nobody can message you until you've both agreed to connect.
