Here in WI, I only use a towel during rainy games. By FB Season, most of our humidity has diminished to where the ball boy can wipe the ball off during swaps. I have yet to bring my own towel, I just ask the home coach during prelim meeting, or the home AD prior to inspection, on a night I expect to need towels and ask to have a number of dry ones on the home field sidelines. Sometimes they give me bath size towels fit for the sleek body of an umpire....
most times they are smaller hand towels.
I prefer the smaller hand towels, kept tucked in front, and left long enough that if I have to cover the ball between plays, my belly and the towel will keep it toasty and dry.
