About Us
AU is the nation’s #1 platform for private sports coaching. The company is owner-operated by former pro athletes who are passionate about helping coaches grow - or start - their training business.
Think of us as the Airbnb or Rover of private sports coaching: we’ll help you find athletes to train, manage everything through our tech, and focus on what you do best – coaching.
Position Overview
We’re looking for motivated & experienced field hockey coaches to join our network in Bucks County, PA and all surrounding towns/counties. This is a 1099 independent contractor role where you decide your rates, availability, and training locations. We provide the tech, support, and marketing - you bring the coaching.
Who This Is For
This role is perfect for current or former college/pro athletes, current or past high school/club coaches, or experienced trainers looking to take control of their schedule and income while increasing their traffic. You must be passionate about helping young athletes improve, and ready to commit at least 8 hours a week. Please only apply if you’re serious about coaching – consistency matters to us, our athletes, and your success.
What You’ll Do
- Run 1:1 and small group field hockey lessons - from beginner to advanced levels
- Set your own rates (most sessions range from $30–$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!)
