Who this list is for
This checklist is built for adults heading straight from work to an indoor recreational volleyball league match. It covers your personal essentials for a typical after-hours game. If you’re responsible for nets or team equipment, that’s a different list—this one is for your own bag.
How to use this list
Pack your bag the night before or in the morning, before your workday gets hectic. Lay out each item and check them off as they go in. Double-check before you leave work, since it’s easy to forget something when you’re rushing to the gym. Keep a copy of this list on your phone or in your gym bag for reference.
Common mistakes
Players often forget their knee pads or bring the wrong shoes (running shoes aren’t great for courts). It’s also common to leave a water bottle at home or skip the spare shirt, which you’ll want post-game. Don’t count on the gym for hair ties or deodorant. Shower flip-flops get overlooked but are worth packing if you plan to rinse off.
What is on this list
This checklist includes a team shirt, athletic shorts or leggings, court shoes, and a pair of athletic socks. Knee pads and an ankle brace (if you use one) are essential for most indoor leagues. Don’t forget a water bottle and a small towel to keep dry. Pack a spare shirt for after the game, two hair ties if you have long hair, and deodorant. Shower flip-flops are a good idea if you plan to use the gym showers.
Before you go
Before leaving for work in the morning, make sure your bag is packed and your shoes and knee pads are clean and ready. After the match, swap out your shirt, wipe down with your towel, and use your shower flip-flops if needed. Repack your bag with dirty items separated, so you’re not scrambling before the next game.
