Draft yourself a packing list (seriously) and check it each time before you depart. Also, I've heard some refs keep an entire uniform in their trunk just in case......

Not yet, but I did leave my whistle in my bag once. Didn't notice it until I was getting ready to toss the ball. Luckily dressing room was only a few steps away!

Never forgot anything going to a site, but did forget to put my whistle on my shirt. Just before I tossed the ball realized I hadn't put it on yet. Always keep spares in my jacket though.

In my first year of officiating I forgot my stripes for Pop Warner football one Saturday morning. Fortunately I only lived about 1/2 mile from the field and had time to rush home and back. I've been pretty anal about having everything ready ever since then.
I carry extra whistles & lanyards to my games. Sure enough, about once every couple years, I've had a partner who has forgotten one, the other or both and I help them out, and by extension myself, by giving them one. Sadly, I've never had a partner I helped out pay for or replace the "borrowed" equipment. |

Making A List, Checking It Twice ...

I used to carry a gym bag (shoes, etc) and a garment bag (shirt, jacket, pants). Forgot the garment bag once. With apologies to Scarlett O'Hara, I'll never go stripe-less again.
