Packing list for tournaments
What to pack for a graduation trip
To make sure you don't forget anything important on a multi-day trip, we have put together a comprehensive packing list for youth football and handball tournaments. If you have already taken part in one of our exciting events, you probably already know how important it is to be well prepared. We have carefully compiled this list to make sure you don't miss anything during the tournament and that all the must-haves are there. Of course, the list is not sufficient for every team and there are always things you should discuss with your team and parents individually. We look forward to seeing you at the tournament!
