The first 5 years we were on team, we had the same style of $15 backpack - with embroidery ... changed colors after the 3rd year though. Many of the girls still use them.On one hand, they cost a lot of money, so keep them in pristine condition.
On the other hand, they cost a lot of money, so get some use out of them.
I tend to follow what the team does on this one. If the coach doesn't care, I have other battles....
Our locker room was taken away in the renovations (the school ran out of money and hasn't finished the back hall, so it is considered "unsafe" to walk on the floor to the locker room). The cubbies are used by the rec girls, so the team girls leave their stuff on the bleachers. I prefer the "stuff" contained in something... and my pockets can only hold so much (which isn't much) before I have to worry about losing my bottoms, lolWe have medium sized duffels with the team name and the girls name on them so it wouldn't make sense for DD to pack it to and from practice. Plus she has her own locker. She keeps like 100 leos in it and tons of boxes of Cliff bars and other nutritional snacks and her grips.
I love our team bags though. They are the perfect size for a carry on when we fly and small enough that they aren't cumbersome for driving meets.
But in our situation it's easier to use something else, because it's easier to spot a unique bag among all the other bags lying around.
her bag is white... .
The thought of changing bags for practice vs meets makes my head spin. I want the stuff ready to go. So its add snacks and water and go. All it does is go to practice and meets. On its third year and looking good with the occasional washing.
my DD actually has a THIRD bag which stays at the gym for practice and contains emergency $ (a few dollars), a couple of protein bars in case, her grips, tape, prewrap, etc.
So, I get to stay on top of meet bag, the stay at the gym bag, and the "other" bag.
"Other" bag has her wallet, phone, a snack, water, chapstick, any clothing she may need to change into, and a stuffed bear which she has deemed "lucky" whom must remain in the bag at all times.
So, triple checking the meet bag will be essential.
