Every aSSistant coach dreams of running his own program…

The thought of being in charge of your schedule, implementing YOUR vision, proving to others that you have what it takes to run your own program, etc., are huge motivators.

However, very few are willing to go the extra mile to prepare for the opportunity.

The Assistant Baseball Coach Cohort is designed to grow your leadership so that you are prepared when you get that head coaching job!

Leadership is often the most under-discussed aspect of a coach's life. Just think of what is talked about at a clinic or convention…

  • Developing hitters: Check.

  • Arm care for pitchers: Check

  • Drills for infielders: Check

  • Leading yourself: not so much

  • Leading others: not so much

  • Preparing for the interview: not so much

Coaches rarely, if ever, get fired because of a lack of sport expertise. Coaches work their whole professional life to get a chance to run their own program and yet the thing that often trips them up is not baseball related, it’s leadership related.

Your ability to lead will directly dictate the level you can rise to. John Maxwell calls it the law of the lid. Raise your leadership capacity and ability, raise the lid on your career.

What Others Are saying

  • "This has been a career changer for me. The information that I have been given has absolutely made me a better leader and coach. Travis has given me so many tools that will allow me to continue to learn and grow. This is a no brainer for leader that truly wants to grow and become better.

    Cooper Fouts - Louisiana Tech University

  • “Being in Travis’ assistant coach cohort was the best thing I have ever done for my own personal development as a coach. If being a head coach or a better assistant coach is your goal there is no better bang for your buck than working with Travis. I cannot recommend hopping into this cohort with Travis enough.”

    Jake Valentine- University of Michigan

  • Taking part in this cohort with Travis was one of the best decisions I have made in my professional life. I think about and draw on the knowledge and perspective from this group daily when evaluating situations and making decisions in our program. I have no doubt the impact this cohort had on me as a coach, and as a leader was as big as any other experience I could’ve had.

    Ryan Overland - Fresno State

  • It’s a no-brainer for me to recommend Travis’ assistant coaching cohort to anyone, hoping to develop their leadership abilities, increase their clarity, and understand their role in building people. Travis’ is ability to connect, create, and conduct quality interactions that promote growth are second to none.

The Kingdom Coaching Assistant cohort

This cohort is a 5-month journey that will provide development, equipping, and a community of like-minded coaches. It will be a group that helps you get better, see things more clearly, challenge you to think differently, create personal connections, make better decisions, solve problems, and resources you to take advantage of opportunities.

The assistant coaches’ cohort is designed for high-level achievers and leaders who desire to grow now, and also have a desire to one day lead their own program. If you are NOT hungry to grow, get better, and position yourself to be the best leader and coach you can be… this is not for you.

Some topics that will be covered…

  • The power of self-awareness

  • Discovering our true identity and knowing your leadership fingerprint

  • Principles for personal development

  • Keys to building an elite environment

  • Inspire through storytelling

  • Gain clarity of the program’s standards, expectations and values

  • Staff development and management

  • How to be a better decision maker

  • First 30 days on the job

  • Interview preparation

There are two aspects to becoming and succeeding as a head coach…being prepared to get the job and being prepared to do the job. We will help you with both of these aspects.

*History says you will never be 100% prepared for your first head coaching job. However, intuitively we know that some are more prepared than others…this cohort will help you be as prepared as you can possibly be!!!!
