In action
See Plan a Hit in 30 seconds.
You tap a player's card. We send them a personal invite — court, time, level, and a message from you. They tap accept. It's in both your calendars with a reminder.
No group chat. No "let me check with the others." No 3am text saying they can't make it.
Why people use it
We built this because we kept hitting the same problem.
You probably have too.
Your racquet has cobwebs
You played every Saturday for five years. Then they had a kid, or moved, or stopped texting back. Eight months later your racquet is still in the boot. We'll put four people in your suburb in front of you today.
New city, no court
You moved for work and don't know a soul who plays. Club waitlists are six months deep. We show you who's hitting this week within 5 km of your new postcode, at your level.
Bored of hitting up
You've plateaued. You want a clinic, not another half-hearted social hit. Local coaches list their sessions with prices and player reviews — book direct, pay them direct, no commission.
How it's different
Everything Facebook groups and WhatsApp can't.
One app. No 47-comment threads. No "RSVP by 5 if you're in." Open it, tap a card, you're playing.
Match by level, not by luck
Tell us you're a 3.5. We'll stop showing you the 4.5s who'll smash you and the 2.5s who'll bore you. You see who's actually a fair hit, sorted closest first.
Drop into a game that's already on
Someone's missing a fourth on Saturday. A coach has a spare spot in Sunday's clinic. You see it, you tap RSVP, you're in. No group-chat negotiation.
Book a coach without the back-and-forth
See the rate, the reviews, the next available slot. Message the coach, agree a time, show up. They keep 100% of the fee. We're not a middleman.
Organise a social night without effort
Post your court, time, and level. Hitting Partner finds the nearby players who match and pings them. Roster fills itself — you just show up with the balls.
Join a social night near you
Browse open games and clinics within range tonight, this weekend, this month. Filter by sport and level. Tap RSVP. The host confirms instantly.
Get notified when a game lands near you
As soon as someone posts an open game within your radius and at your level, your phone buzzes. No checking the app — the app checks for you.
Simple pricing
Browsing and community are free. Pay when you want to message or list — that's it. Cancel anytime from your phone's subscription settings.

How it works
Tell us your level
UTR, DUPR, NTRP, or just 'I rally OK and I want a hit.' That's enough.
See who's up for it
We show you players, open games, and clinics that fit — closest first, sorted by who's most likely to actually play this week.
Lock it in
Message, pick a court, agree a time. It lands in your calendar with a reminder so neither of you forgets.
Coach Pro is 6 months on us — every new coach.
Get listed, fill clinics, take direct lesson inquiries. Pay nothing for half a year while we help you find players.
For coaches
Stop renting your audience.
Other platforms take 15–30% of every lesson, every time. Hitting Partner takes nothing. One flat monthly fee, your prices, your payment method, your relationship with the player. We just help them find you.
Look at it in time, not dollars. A 20% commission on a 60-minute lesson means you're teaching for free for 12 minutes — to the platform, not the player. At 30% it's 18 minutes. Over 200 lessons a year, that's 40–60 hours of unpaid coaching you're giving away. Coach Pro hands all of that back.
- ✓ Public listing with photos, rates, and reviews — in your currency
- ✓ Players message you direct. No platform intermediary.
- ✓ Post unlimited clinics, filled from the local player pool
- ✓ Direct lesson-request inbox — pre-qualified by level and sport
- ✓ Community-earned tier (Rising → Recommended → Top Rated → Elite) from real reviews
- ✓ Keep 100% of every dollar you charge — no commission, ever

How coaches use it
Three things Coach Pro is built for.
Fill a clinic in 48 hours
Post a clinic — court, level, time, price — and every nearby player at that level gets a push. Half-empty Saturday clinics fill themselves.
Stop chasing intro lessons
Players send you a lesson request with their level, sport, and goals already in it. You reply yes or no. Less time on WhatsApp, more time on court.
Build trust the right way
Tiers come from real student reviews — not paid badges. Earn Rising, Recommended, Top Rated, or Elite by actually being good. We don't sell tier upgrades.
How we compare
Coach Pro vs the competition.
Most coaching platforms grew up taking a cut of every lesson. We grew up tired of that.

Typical platform
Put differently
For every 1-hour lesson on a typical platform, you're teaching for free for 12–18 minutes.
Over 200 lessons a year, that's 40–60 hours of free coaching you'd be giving the platform. Coach Pro hands every minute of it back.
"Typical platform" reflects the dominant pricing model among coaching marketplaces in 2026. Some platforms charge less commission and a higher monthly fee, or vice versa — but the core split is what it is.

"I built Hitting Partner because I kept getting flaked on by the one tennis partner I had. There wasn't a tool that solved this for adults — only for juniors and competitive players. So we made one."
— Falgun, founder
