Thank you,

Dont know what your budget is, but this is the bag I have and I use it for both college and high school:

It has plenty of room and zipped compartments for items.

Agreed. I bought a Wilson gym / travel / sport bag (reasonably similar, but better, of course, to the Addidas pictured above) at Target 13 years ago for something like $15. It still works just fine.

Bought an American Tourister rolling suitcase at Walmart for 50 bucks a couple years ago for football and basketball. Has plenty of pockets, and still a good investment.

It never is a hard and fast rule. It's just a good idea in most cases. That said, if you think something else works better, use it as long as it looks professional.

You mean I can't use this?

Hope you saved your receipt.

these posts remind me of the kids on the playground who all want the "cool" sneakers. I thought we outgrew this once our sacs fully dropped?

I find it disturbing that one's "ability to move up" might be affected by the bag one carries.

Of course you do not.

Thank you,

I use a black roller luggage bag. It the best bag because it has many compartments and I can get a lot of stuff into the bag. Works well for me.

BTW, that is what most officials in my area tend to use.

And yet the lack of ability to separate positive from negative in a written sentence apparently is no stumbling block at all.

I would go with the luggage bag with wheels it looks a lot my professional. IMO duffel bags look like you are going to play basketball not referee it.

Bringing a wheel bag looks like you are about to take off on an airplane.
