About CoachHQ

Built by coaches, for coaches.

CoachHQ is one headquarters for every coach — across cricket, hockey, netball, football, tennis, golf, basketball and rugby. We bring world-class drills, lesson plans and digital checklists into one place, so coaches can spend less time planning and more time on the pitch with their players.

Why we built it

Coaching has never been more important — or more fragmented. School PE teachers, club coaches, academy coaches and individual mentors juggle PDFs, YouTube tabs, WhatsApp groups and old session notes just to plan a single training evening.

CoachHQ pulls all of that into one place. Expert-led video drills, ready-to-run lesson plans, and digital checklists you can hand straight to your players — across every sport you coach.

We're a small founding team obsessed with two things: giving coaches their evenings back, and raising the bar of what good coaching looks like at every level of the game.

What we stand for

Our principles

Coaches first

Every feature is judged by one question: does it make a coach's week easier?

Quality over noise

Curated content from experts and former internationals — not endless YouTube scrolling.

Safe by design

Built with safeguarding, professional conduct and player welfare baked in from day one.

Every sport, one HQ

Cricket, hockey, netball, football, tennis, golf, basketball, rugby — and more to come.

Built with coaches

Our roadmap is shaped by the coaches on our launch list — not assumptions in a boardroom.

Fair to producers

The expert coaches and athletes creating content on CoachHQ get paid fairly for their craft.
