We are doing trading pins for the first time with a 12U team. We are looking for suggestions on what to give the girls to carry their pins in. A ziplock poly bag just doesn’t seem adequate.
Plan on having lanyards or towels to put their collected/traded pins on.. just looking for something to store their team pins in until they’re all t
Each girl will have 30 pins to trade.
Thank you!

Following. We showed up last year (first time) with no pins. Kind of a bummer, so we are trying it this year. 30 pins seems to be the number we decided on also, but we weren't sure how many to get. Hadn't thought about carrying them yet.

maybe pin to lanyard prior to arriving, take one off to trade away, put on pin received?

also, make certain they keep one of their teams pins for themselves!

This is what our 10u is doing for nationals, using towels.

Last year our team's pins were in a cinch sack with the team logo and girls number on it. When the girls traded a pin, they pinned it on the outside of their cinch sack.

When the bag was empty, it became their sunflower seed/bubble gum sack bag. 8U girls...

We had mini-pennants made - but this was last year, where we knew we would be getting pins, but not actively trading due to COVID, so we weren't expecting the girls to walk around with the felt pennant shoved in their bag. I think lanyard is the easiest.

We’re doing rally towels with grommets and hooks. We put this logo on each towel and will have their pins on the towel to trade. 😊
