Your peace of mind

Trust & safety

Handing your child — or your own time and money — to someone new takes trust. Here’s exactly how we earn it.

Every coach is verified

Before a coach can appear in search or accept a booking, they complete a background check. No check, no profile — no exceptions.

Reviews you can trust

Ratings and reviews come only from families who actually completed a session — never anonymous strangers. Read real feedback before you book.

Secure payments, clear refunds

You pay securely through Stripe when you book. We never see your full card number, no cash changes hands, and every coach publishes a clear cancellation and refund policy up front.

Cancel with confidence

Plans change. Cancel up to 24 hours before a session for a full refund. Inside 24 hours, you’re charged 50%. Clear terms, every time.

Extra care for young players

Most private soccer coaching is for kids and teens. A few simple habits keep every session safe.

Sessions in public spaces

Coaching takes place at public fields, parks, and facilities — open, visible places.

Parents stay close

For younger players, we encourage a parent to be present or nearby for every session.

Everything on the record

Book and pay through My Soccer Coach so every session has a clear, traceable record.

How a coach gets on the platform

  1. 1They apply and build a full profile — experience, specialties, and rates, all visible to you.
  2. 2They complete a background check. Until it clears, they can’t be booked or found in search.
  3. 3We review the profile before it goes live.
  4. 4Once active, their reputation is built by real reviews from families they’ve actually coached.
