How does everyone pack their bats and other equipment when taking air flights to tournaments? We're new to the travel team and would like to know the best way.
My DD has an old cathers bag that we use for her bats. I have also found that I can get a folding chair and a soft sided cooler in there. We also throw in the sunscreen and other items that would cause a problem with the TSA going through security. Do NOT put anything in a checked bag that would be difficult to replace quickly - glove, jerseys, cleats.
I bought a used soft sided golf travel cover, heavily padded, from Play It Again Sports. It is large enough to fit the roller bag into.
Have not had any issues what so ever. Last trip was ASA Nationals in College Station, Texas.
