Find your coach. Book the hour.

ConnectCoach helps players in the Philippines find a coach near them, for any sport and level. Compare rates and ratings, book the hour that fits your week, and only pay once the coach says yes.

Coming soon to the App Store and Google Play.

The problem

Finding a good coach is a gamble.

Coaches are scattered across Facebook groups and group chats. You message a few, wait, compare rates in your head, and hope the one who replies is any good.

Today: posts, DMs and word of mouth

Players

Nobody knows who’s good, or who’s free.

  • No way to compare

    Coaches are scattered across posts, pages and group chats, each with a different rate.

  • No reviews to trust

    There is no record of who actually played with a coach, or how it went.

  • Scheduling by chat

    Finding a free hour takes a dozen messages, and often never lands.

How it works

From search to court, without the DMs.

Search runs on real coordinates and a radius you pick, so it works wherever you play. Every booking is approved by the coach, and nothing is charged until they say yes.

Find

Coaches near where you play.

Set your area and how far you’ll travel, and coaches are ranked by their nearest court to you. Price, rating and next free hour are right on every card.

Student's phone

Book

One screen, not forty messages.

Book from a coach’s profile, from an open hour, or join a group that still has seats. The request goes straight to the coach, and you only pay once they approve.

Find me a coach

No hour that fits? Post one.

Say what you want and what you’d pay. Every coach in range whose rates fit hears about it at once, and you choose from the coaches who say yes.

No DMs. No guesswork. Just the hour, booked.

Why ConnectCoach

Everything you used to do by DM, done for you.

Compare coaches, see real ratings and book an open hour, all in one place. You stay in control: nothing is charged until the coach says yes.

Your first session

Four steps from your couch to the court.

  1. Step 1

    Set your area

    Where you play and how far you’ll go. Coaches are ranked by their nearest court.

  2. Step 2

    Pick a coach or an hour

    Browse coaches, or see every bookable hour in the next seven days.

  3. Step 3

    Send the request

    Four quick questions. The coach approves it, then you pay to confirm.

  4. Step 4

    Play, then rate

    Meet on court. Your rating helps the next player choose.

Every level

A coach for where your game is now.

Coaches list the levels they teach, from first-timers to players who compete. The app has three: Beginner, Intermediate and Advanced. Book at your level, and move up on purpose.

  1. Level 1

    Beginner

    The grip, the footwork and the rules, so your first games are fun instead of frustrating.

  2. Level 2

    Intermediate

    Consistency and shot choice, and the habits you picked up teaching yourself, fixed.

  3. Level 3

    Advanced

    Strategy, pace and placement, for holding your own against better players.

Better with friends

Bring your friends, or join a group.

Add friends to your booking and the coach’s group rate applies. Most coaches charge less each for a bigger group. Or take a seat in a session someone else started, while there’s still room.

Join a group

Open group sessions with seats left show up under Joinable. Tap the seats, send, and you’re in once the coach approves.

Bring your friends

Add them to your booking. The price each comes from the coach’s group rates.

Safe to book

Know who you’re booking. Pay once they say yes.

On social media you’re taking a stranger’s word for it. Here you can see who a coach is, what past students thought, and you never pay for a session that isn’t confirmed.

  • Verified coaches

    Coaches who pass our checks carry a Verified badge, so you know who you’re booking before you pay.

  • Ratings from real sessions

    Only students who completed a session can rate a coach. Nobody else gets a say.

  • Pay only after a yes

    Nothing is charged when you send a request. You pay once the coach approves, and cancelling is free until then.

  • Private reporting

    If something’s off, report it privately. It reaches our team, never the person it’s about.

Pickleball in the Philippines

From Metro Manila to Mindanao, everyone’s picking up a paddle.

Clubs, malls and neighbourhood courts keep adding pickleball, and players are signing up faster than coaches can answer their DMs. ConnectCoach isn’t limited to a few cities: wherever coaches sign up and get verified, players nearby can find and book them.
