The Cheerleader’s Traveling Essentials

Every team has a different point of view when it comes to the “essentials” of cheerleading. Whether that is having a specific shoe, preferred style of uniform, or standard bow. However, one item that is up for debate is… BAGS!

Duffel bags, backpacks, totes, drawstrings, fanny packs, gear bags, etc (Oh, my!)

With so many different options, you begin to ask questions like, “which is the best function for my needs?” and “does this fit my style?” Which bag should I choose??

We know it is a tough question, so here are a few examples of some of our favorites, and why we think they’re GREAT:

adidas Small Issue Duffel$31.95
