Volleyball Bags And Backpacks

Volleyball bags are important for carrying your uniform and other essentials, as well as transporting all your belongings to and from games. Below we will cover the types, materials, and brands you should know, along with some impo rtant considerations to keep in mind when shopping for your next volleyball bag.

What Are Volleyball Bags Used For?

Volleyball bags are used to carry and protect all your volleyball equipment. Volleyball bags are typically the last item purchased by volleyball players once they have identified exactly how much space they’ll need. Volleyball bags can be used to hold equipment such as knee pads, shoes, extra change of clothes, socks, water, tape and other gear that a player may need to bring to the court. 

Depending on the size of the volleyball bag, many feature compartments that make it easy to organize and separate all of your equipment and gear. Volleyball bags are available in different styles and colors, so players must choose the one that best meets their needs and personality.

Things to Consider

When looking for volleyball bags and backpacks, you'll want to consider the following:

• What are you going to be using the bag for?
• How much space do you need in the bag?
• How much money do you have to spend on a volleyball bag?
• Do you need the bag to be waterproof?
• Do you have a favorite brand or color?

Types

Some of the main types of volleyball bags include drawstring, duffle, backpack, and ball bags.

Drawstring

Drawstring bags are a versatile option for carrying personal belongings and smaller items. Since they are smaller, they are very portable and can be taken anywhere. These bags are highly customizable. As drawstring bags have one main compartment, they are easily accessible. However, drawstring bags have limited storage space.

Duffle

Duffle bags are a convenient option for players who wish to carry larger amounts of equipment. Duffle bags can have multiple compartments with separate pockets, making it easier to organize all your gear. Many duffle bags also have adjustable shoulder straps to make them easier to carry.

Backpack

Volleyball backpacks are a secure and durable option to store all of your smaller equipment and items. They usually have a main compartment, with additional zippered pockets. Backpacks generally also have side pockets to hold water bottles or other belongings. Most backpacks feature padded shoulder straps to make them comfortable to carry for long periods of time.

Ball Bag

Ball bags are used to carry and store volleyballs. These bags come in a few different styles, sizes, and materials. Volleyball ball bags are available in individual sizes, as well as bags that carry six or more volleyballs. A mesh bag is best suited for local schools and tournaments, as they provide the bare minimum in terms of protection and could prove to be a liability on longer trips. Teams should consider purchasing a heavy-duty bag if they intend on traveling long distances to compete. 

Brands

There are many brands to choose from when purchasing volleyball bags, including Mizuno, Adidas, and Asics.

• Mizuno: Mizuno offers a range of volleyball bags, including backpacks, ball bags, duffles, and drawstrings. All their bags are offered in different color options and have different storage features. 
• Adidas: Adidas sells duffle bags and backpacks for volleyball players. Their backpacks are a versatile option that allows for the storage of both volleyball equipment and personal belongings. Some of their bags have a hydroshield base to keep the bags water-resistant. 
• Asics: Asics offers some popular options for backpacks, duffle bags, and ball bags. A unique feature many of their bags have is a specialized pocket for wet clothing and shoes.
