You need to decide what your time is worth and what you can
deliver as a coach, keeping in mind you have no experience.
Many dedicate their time bringing up young kids without charge.
But on the other hand, if the young kids parents are capable of
paying, then I would say anywhere between $20-$40/hour.

When I started playing, I used an experience coach and also
had my friend getting coached at the same time. He charged
us $20/hr. He did the same when some kids (

Uh…no. Not that much. I am top 10 in South Carolina, and I pay $45 an hour. My coach has taught for 30 years and has had 3 state #1′s, and 5 players in the top 100 in the country.

It doesn’t sound to me that you are a certified pro. If this is the case, you have to be careful where you teach b/c a lot of place won’t allow an unauthorized coach to charge money on their facilities. A good price for an uncertified pro is probably $20-25 an hour.

If you are certified but don’t have experience or a good resume of successful playes, $30-35.

If it is a young child the rate should be 25-30. If you make it too expensive they will not be calling you back for more coaching.
