Running late to meet your friends for a nice game of soccer because you have too much equipment and nothing to put it in? What you need is a Soccer bag. Choosing a bag can be complicated if you’re not prepared. What exactly do you need? The best way to figure this out is to lay out your equipment so that you can see how much room is needed. Once you have an idea of the space required you have to decide whether you want a simple functional bag, a name-brand bag like Puma and Nike or a bag with your favorite team’s logo and colors.
Bag styles vary like shoes and clothing. One soccer bag style is the classic backpack that can be used for many different things like carrying school supplies. This bag has a mesh ball pocket with zipper. Along with a large main area it includes a wet/dry shoe compartment, water bottle net and some even have a cell phone holder. Inside the main area is a zippered pocket for valuables.
The gym-sack or knap-sack is like the duffle bag which is a simple bag that opens in the top. There are no compartments so everything goes into the same area. A draw string at the top closes the bag and a shoulder strap allows for easy carrying. These bags are great when in a rush because you don’t have worry about sorting and organizing your equipment. You just put it in and go.
If you’re in charge of the supplies you will definitely want to get a soccer ball bag or equipment bag. These bags are sturdy and made for carrying practice or game gear. Most coaches use these bags to carry all the team members’ equipment so that no one misses out on game day.
Another type of bag to choose from is goal keeper glove bags and shoe bags. These are made specifically for keeping your gloves and shoes clean and safe from dirt and mud. Until game day that is! Preserve your equipment with these bags.
Prices range from the basic to name-brand prices but remember that investing in a bag regardless of the style will prolong the life of your equipment and allow you to play longer. Also consider that when not using your soccer gear a bag will keep it organized and out of the way until your next practice or game day.
