What's In My Volleyball Bag — Senior Season
12
items I'm a senior college volleyball player and this is everything that actually lives in my bag for practice, lifting, and game days. Not the extra stuff — the stuff I use every week and would replace right away if I lost it.

On The Court
The gear I play in every practice and game — the stuff that has to hold up.
Knee pads are not optional in volleyball. These stay in place when I dive and they don't slide down mid-rally like the cheap ones do.
Armour 2.0 Knee Pads Black M
I live in spandex for practice. A 3-pack is perfect because I'm doing laundry constantly during season and I always have a clean pair ready.
Runhit 3" Volleyball Shorts Womens 3 Pack
Ankles are everything in this sport. I keep this in my bag just in case — it laces up tight and gives real support, not just a sleeve.
Reinforced Lace Up Ankle Brace, Sprain Support
32 oz so I'm not refilling it every 20 minutes at practice. The straw lid makes it easy to drink fast between drills.
Hydro Flask 32oz Travel Bottle Agave Green
Recovery
Practice 5 days a week will beat you up. This is how I keep my body right between practices and games.
Small enough to actually fit in my bag, strong enough to work on my legs after practice. This is my favorite recovery thing I own.
RENPHO Duo Mini Massage Gun with Double Heads
Not cute, just works. I roll out my back and legs after lifting and it makes the next day's practice way less painful.
Amazon Basics High-Density Foam Roller, 18"
Pre-cut is the key — I don't have time to measure and cut tape before practice. I throw a few strips in my bag for when my knee is feeling off.
KTQUICK Precut Kinesiology Knee Tape 24PCS
We use bands for warm-ups and shoulder work constantly. Having my own set means I can do my prehab in the dorm too, not just in the gym.
Resistance Bands 5-Pack Loop for Home Gym
Bag & Hair Essentials
The little stuff that saves me — hair, smell, and keeping my bag from being disgusting.
My ponytail has to stay UP for a whole match. These don't crease my hair and they don't snap like normal hair ties do mid-game.
Hair Ties 17 Pack Spiral Coils No Crease
Volleyball bags get GROSS, I'm not gonna lie. I spray my shoes and knee pads after practice so my bag doesn't smell up my whole dorm room.
Nonaste Shoe & Gym Bag Odor Eliminator Spray 16oz
Post-practice shower slides — I swap straight out of my court shoes into these. They dry fast and they live in my bag.
COZYAREA Quick Dry Non-Slip Shower Shoes
Away games are long bus rides. This keeps my phone alive for music, film review, and the ride home. The built-in cable is why I love it.
