USTA Coaching and WeCOACH Announce New Strategic Partnership
April 6, 2026
ORLANDO, FL (April 6, 2026) — WeCOACH is proud to announce a new strategic partnership with USTA Coaching, a new entity established by the USTA with a national platform created to support, elevate and expand the tennis coaching community across the United States.
As a Mission Partner with WeCOACH, USTA Coaching will join us in various initiatives designed to recruit, develop, support, and retain women in coaching at all levels of the sport from grassroots to the highest levels. Our support and sponsorship of USTA Coaching’s new program, Serving All: Aspiring Coaches powered by WeCOACH aligns with USTA Coaching’s mission to educate and serve coaches to create inspiring tennis experiences for players of all levels. Our collaboration reflects a shared commitment to long-term growth of the game at every level.
The Aspiring Coaches powered by WeCOACH Program is intended to support collegiate women tennis players (sophomore, junior, senior, or graduate students) entering the tennis coaching profession, and provide aspiring coaches with practical tools, reflective learning opportunities, and ongoing professional support. Applications are now open. Program timelines, enrollment, and implementation are available here.
In addition to the new Program, USTA Coaching will provide a select number of participants from the USTA Coaching community with complimentary WeCOACH memberships. These memberships provide direct access to WeCOACH’s professional development platform and resources that support continuous learning and leadership development programming.
The WeCOACH partnership with USTA Coaching underscores a shared dedication to growing the number of females coaching tennis through education, inclusion, and innovation.
“At USTA Coaching, we are deeply committed to creating meaningful pathways for women to enter and thrive in the coaching profession. Our partnership with WeCOACH allows us to expand that impact, providing aspiring coaches with the education, support, and community they need to grow, lead, and shape the future of our sport,” said Megan Rose, Managing Director of USTA Coaching.
“We often hear sport leaders who are hiring ask, ‘Where are all the women?’—and this program is designed to be part of the solution by expanding the pipeline of talented women coaches ready to lead in tennis. This partnership highlights the power of collaboration in growing and advancing women in coaching,” said Vanessa Fuchs, CEO of WeCOACH. “Together with USTA Coaching, we’re creating impactful initiatives to help these women lead with confidence and succeed in the coaching profession.”
