Team initially charged games coach, say (9)
I believe the answer is:
transport
'coach say' is the definition.
(I know that bus is a type of public transport)
'team initially charged games' is the wordplay.
'initially' indicates taking the first letters.
'charged' becomes 'ran'.
'games' becomes 'sport' (sporting games).
The first letter of 'team' is 't'.
't'+'ran'+'sport'='TRANSPORT'
(Other definitions for transport that I've seen before include "Carriage" , "Delight; e.g. bus" , "Carry from one place to another" , "Move (from place to place)" , "Move something or somebody around" .)
