The Bus Trip

It was not quite the season that the Eagles had envisioned. With another road trip looming, morale was low and motivation was non-existent.

Congratulations!

You just booked "the bus trip", ready to get started.

"The Bus Trip" has been the #1 book for "Sports Coaching" in the Amazon Kindle Store.

It was not quite the season that the Eagles had envisioned. With another road trip looming, morale was low and motivation was non-existent. The season was essentially over as the players were just going through the motions, counting down the days until the last game was finally completed. Little did they know when they woke up that day that instead of being another step closer to the end, this particular trip would mark the beginning of something special. They would encounter situations and have conversations that would start to change the way they looked at themselves and the team. In learning how to be better teammates and more positive leaders, their seemingly finished season was now only beginning.

What They're Saying About Jamy and "The Bus Trip"

When the Storm went from a series of losing seasons to winning the World Championship, I saw first-hand how much intangibles can impact a team. There were certainly players with amazing talent on the team but it was inspiring to watch them come together as a team and embrace a culture of positive leadership. They communicated, supported, encouraged, and made each other better. No matter your team's level or talent, they could benefit from the insights that Jamy provides in building a team and getting the most out of your players . Dan Hughes Seattle Storm Head Coach; 2018 WNBA Coach of the Year

It seems like now more than ever, there is a need for positive leadership and the intentional development of our youth.  Jamy’s books speak directly to student-athletes and give them ideas and strategies on how to be a better teammate and a more positive leader on their teams. Sports isn’t just about X’s and O’s and Jamy provides a blueprint for how student-athletes can reach their potential regardless of their status or talent level. Jason Romano Sports Spectrum Host; Former ESPN Producer

It's exciting to think of the impact Jamy's new book will have on athletes. All teams face obstacles and challenges throughout their season. Jamy provides positive solutions and leadership insights that can better help teams overcome the difficulties that are sure to come their way. Even though the book depicts a fictional team, anyone will be able to relate and apply these powerful life lessons. Every team can get better. You just have to take the right steps and get on the bus. Michael Catt Senior Pastor at Sherwood Baptist; Executive Producer of "Facing the Giants"

Jamy has developed uniquely beneficial approach to leadership through his combined experience as both a college basketball coach and athletic administrator. Athletic success goes beyond the X’s and O’s and I have seen Jamy apply these lessons successfully through his speaking, writing and podcasts. His new book is an entertaining resource that can aid coaches and players, alike, in developing teamwork and chemistry. Brian Stanchak President of the BDS Agency; Represents College Basketball Coaches

When I played for Coach Bechler, he strongly valued leadership. It is very important at every level and it should be taught daily. The teams most likely to succeed are those that have good leadership skills and everyone is held accountable for their actions. Leadership will bring success on and off the court so lead wherever you may go because it can be quite contagious! Vee Young Professional Basketball Player

Some of the most vivid memories I have from my time as an athlete and a coach involve the bus trips my teams took for games on the road.  If you've been an athlete or a coach, you probably have those memories, too.  The Bus Trip is the powerful story of how one struggling team came together in the most unlikely of places.  It will help you and your team come together, too! Travis Daugherty Author; Speaker & Award Winning Basketball Coach

As someone who works with college athletic departments and coaches around the country, I know the type of authors and speakers they trust and look to for leadership skills, and Jamy Bechler is in that category. His coaching background is the perfect foundation for the advice he is giving to athletes, their parents, and the coaches who coach them. Coach Bechler is a go-to resource for leadership.  I definitely recommend his book to coaches. Dan Tudor College Recruiting Expert

I have known Jamy as a competing conference coach, a friend, and now as one who helps elevates our program.  I much prefer him as an ally than as an opponent!  Our team studied "The Leadership Playbook" for the 2017-18 season and it served as a catalyst as we over-achieved, rattling off 9 wins to finish the regular season. We consequently qualified for the National Tournament after bouncing back and holding each other accountable from consecutive 41 and 29 point losses in late January of that season.  I am hungry to gobble up everything Jamy has to share as I know it will be relevant to our team in our quest to connect with each other and WIN! Reed Sutton College Basketball Head Coach
