At CoachNow, we’re proud to support coaches and athletes across nearly every sport imaginable. But over time, some sports have truly stood out in the way they leverage CoachNow to streamline communication, accelerate progress, and create lasting impact.

Whether you're coaching a pro athlete or guiding someone just starting out, these five sports consistently lead the pack when it comes to using CoachNow to its fullest.

Golf

Golf

Golf coaches were among the earliest adopters of CoachNow, and it’s easy to see why. The sport thrives on technical detail, video analysis, and consistent feedback—everything our platform was built to support.

With CoachNow, golf coaches can:

  • Upload swing videos for slow-motion analysis

  • Provide frame-by-frame voice-over feedback

  • Track long-term progress across multiple seasons

  • Keep parents, performance teams, and others in the loop

Take Andrew Banner, founder of Forged Swing, as an example. After years in the traditional coaching world, Andrew transitioned his entire business online using CoachNow as the backbone of his all-digital “Tour Proven Pathway” program. 

His 90-day transformation program is centered around consistent video check-ins, scheduled content, and real-time feedback—all delivered through CoachNow. 

By setting clear expectations and using the app’s tools like Templates and Scheduled Posts, he empowers students to practice with purpose, avoid backsliding, and achieve dramatic improvements (some cutting 20 strokes off their scores in just three months!).

From youth players to PGA pros, golf remains the #1 sport on CoachNow—and Andrew’s success story shows what’s possible when you fully embrace the platform.

Baseball and Softball

Baseball & Softball

Baseball is a sport where development happens across many disciplines—hitting, pitching, fielding, base running—and CoachNow helps coaches bring it all together. 

Whether you're working with individuals or managing an entire travel team, our platform makes it easy to stay connected and organized.

Baseball coaches love CoachNow for:

  • Pitching and swing analysis with side-by-side comparisons

  • In-season feedback loops to maintain focus

  • Creating “Channels” for team-wide updates and drills

  • Supporting hybrid coaching models (in-person + remote)

Nicole Fougerousse, founder of NF Softball Performance, has built a thriving pitching business by leaning into a subscription-based coaching model and using CoachNow as the backbone of her athlete experience.

After shifting away from short-term lessons, Nicole introduced a year-long subscription program with a structured four-month onboarding process. 

CoachNow also plays a key role in helping young female athletes build confidence. By creating a safe, private space for video analysis, Nicole breaks down insecurities around being on camera and empowers her athletes to embrace their development journey.

For Nicole, CoachNow isn’t just a tool—it’s her virtual training ground, progress tracker, and community hub.

Hockey

Hockey

Hockey is fast, technical, and physically demanding, and CoachNow helps slow it down to build better athletes at every level. 

From video breakdowns of skating form to off-ice conditioning updates, hockey coaches are using CoachNow to develop smarter, faster, and more efficient players.

Key ways hockey coaches use CoachNow:

  • Analyze game footage and individual shifts

  • Deliver off-ice workout plans

  • Keep track of recovery protocols and performance metrics

  • Improve communication across player, parent, and coaching staff

Riley Dudar, founder of Evolution Hockey, is a certified Hockey Canada skills coach who supports elite players with a focus on individual skill and mental development. 

His team uses CoachNow to streamline video analysis, give rapid feedback, and track progress year-round, making it easy to manage personalized programs for each athlete.

With a subscription-based model, Riley prioritizes quality over quantity, hiring coaches who align with his culture and values. 

His daily use of CoachNow, especially voice notes and annotations, helps maintain strong relationships and accountability with athletes.

Tennis

Tennis

Tennis is as much mental as it is physical. CoachNow empowers tennis coaches to stay in sync with their athletes, even between tournaments or when players are training remotely. With an emphasis on technique, mindset, and match prep, CoachNow helps coaches bring structure to every swing.

Tennis coaches benefit from:

  • Match video breakdowns and point-by-point analysis

  • Mental training modules and journal prompts

  • Sharing strategy and scouting reports before tournaments

  • Creating routines to maintain focus and confidence

Ivan Molina, former Professional Tennis Player, shares, "No other app is as effective at emphasizing the Biomechanics of the strokes. I'm always using video analysis to improve my athlete's tactics."

Weightlifting

Weightlifting

In weightlifting, proper form, load management, and recovery are everything. CoachNow is an essential tool for coaches tracking progress rep by rep, week by week. 

With detailed video feedback and performance tracking, coaches can catch issues before they lead to injury and help athletes lift smarter.

Weightlifting coaches use CoachNow to:

  • Analyze lifting technique from multiple angles

  • Share training cycles and periodized programs

  • Log PRs, mobility drills, and recovery notes

  • Keep athletes motivated with progress visuals

Spencer Arnold, Head Coach of Power and Grace Performance, relies on CoachNow to build meaningful relationships with athletes, especially remote ones. The platform allows him to provide personalized feedback, track progress, and foster long-term engagement.

Spencer’s onboarding process uses CoachNow for video analysis, behavior assessments, and communication, ensuring athletes feel connected and supported. 

CoachNow is central to both technical coaching and community-building, making it key to athlete retention and success.
