For coaches
Coach fast bowlers on FastBowlingLab
Apply to be listed as a reviewed fast-bowling coach on FastBowlingLab: publish a profile, set your own price, answer athletes' enquiries and run live one-to-one sessions.
Our team reviews every application before a profile is listed.
Who this is for
Fast-bowling coaches who want to work with athletes in live, one-to-one sessions. Athletes on FastBowlingLab film their action and get a measured analysis; some then want a person to talk it through with.
The launch is in India, by invitation or by applying here. The app is in English, Hindi and Hinglish, and athletes can filter coaches by language.
What applying involves
Draft your profile
Sign up in the coach app, then: your name, service area, languages, biography, specialties, experience, qualifications and a photo.
Upload evidence, privately
Add evidence for what your profile says. Only our reviewers see it; it is never part of your public profile.
Submit for review
The FastBowlingLab team reviews it. You can see where it stands, and every decision comes with a reason.
Set up your coaching
Once approved: your prices, weekly hours, cancellation terms, payment instructions and meeting link.
Preview, then publish
See your profile as an athlete will, then switch it on.

What athletes see, and what they do not
Shown to athletes
The profile fields our team has reviewed, your two offers and prices, your availability, your typical response time, and the ratings and reviews athletes leave.
Kept private
The evidence you upload. It is never part of your public profile. Edits you make to your credentials after approval also stay unpublished until they have been reviewed again.
Approved coaches carry a Verified badge: FastBowlingLab reviewed the evidence you stated. We tell athletes it is not a licence and not a guarantee of quality.
Your profile is shown to athletes inside the FastBowlingLab app. Public, search-indexed coach pages are not part of this launch.
You set your own price
Every coach offers the same two formats, a 30-minute consultation and a 60-minute session, and sets their own price for each. Your hours and cancellation terms are yours to set too.
What it costs, and how you are paid
Coaching on FastBowlingLab is free. There is no fee to apply or to be listed, no subscription, and no commission on your sessions.
Athletes pay you directly, outside FastBowlingLab, using the payment instructions you provide, such as a UPI ID or bank details; they appear on each confirmed booking. FastBowlingLab does not handle the payment, takes no share of it and does not refund it.
How enquiries and bookings work
- Athletes message first. You cannot start a conversation with an athlete; you answer the ones they open. Messages are text only.
- You can pause new enquiries whenever you need to.
- Either of you proposes a slot in the conversation and the other accepts. Two confirmed bookings can never overlap.
- You see the athlete’s goal and only the analyses that athlete chose to share with you.
- You run the session from your own meeting link, and can record notes afterwards.
- After a completed session the athlete can leave a rating and a review. You can reply to a review once, publicly; you cannot edit or remove it.
Group sessions and recorded sessions are not part of this launch.
Where you work
Coaches have their own apps, separate from the athlete app: the coach web app, and FastBowlingLab Coach, the dedicated iOS and Android apps. You can apply, answer enquiries and manage your bookings in any of them, with the same account.
FastBowlingLab Coach for iOS and Android is on its way to the stores. The coach web app works today, on any phone or laptop.
If you also bowl, you use one account for both, and sign in to the coach apps and the athlete app separately.
What we expect of coaches
- Describe your experience and qualifications accurately, and back them with evidence.
- Stay within coaching. No medical diagnosis, no injury prediction, no certifying that an action is legal, and no promised improvement.
- Work with adults only for now. Bookings by or for minors are not available yet.
- Honour the price, availability and cancellation terms you published.
- Treat what an athlete shares with you as theirs. You see an analysis because that athlete chose to show it to you.
Athletes can block a coach and can report a problem to us. We review reports and can suspend a coach. You have the same two controls: you can block an athlete, and report a problem by email at support@fastbowlinglab.com or on Instagram at @fastbowling.lab.hi.
What we are not promising
We make no promise about how many athletes will contact you, how many sessions you will run or what you will earn. This is a first launch, with invited coaches, and we would rather say that than show you a number we cannot stand behind.
