Handball bag for players and clubs

Sports bag, backpack, or roller bag: what size for what use

The backpack, around twenty-five to thirty-five litres, is enough for a session: indoor shoes, outfit, water bottle, and towel. The sports bag classic, fifty to seventy litres, accommodates the tracksuit and a change of clothes for match days. For a two-day tournament or a training camp, the roller bag prevents carrying a heavy load through train or hotel corridors. For a child, a bag that's too big can bounce around and weigh on their back: a compact model carried on both shoulders, suitable for their size, is better.

The rest of the gear

The handball equipment also includes:

• Accessories.
• Protective gear.
• Care items.
• Training equipment.
• Club space.

All the equipment is gathered on the equipment page.

Shoe compartment, reinforced bottom: the details that matter

A separate compartment for shoes, often placed at the end of the bag and equipped with vents, isolates the soles and moisture from clean clothes. The reinforced bottom or coating protects the contents when the bag is placed on a wet floor in a parking lot or changing room. An inner zip pocket keeps keys and phone safe, and a small dedicated pocket holds the resin box: handball glue stains fabrics permanently, so it's better to keep it in a sealed container. Padded straps and an adjustable shoulder strap ease walking or biking trips.

Ball bags and coach bags for club equipment

The ball bag, made of mesh or canvas with a drawstring, carries a team's set of about ten handballs. The mesh allows damp balls from glue or sweat to dry, while the canvas protects them from dust in the trunk. The coach complements this with a more structured coach bag, equipped with pockets for the whistle, match sheets, and care kit. After each session, empty the bag, leave it open to dry, and clean the shoe compartment with soapy sponge to prevent odours from settling in.

Good deals

Good bargains can also be found in the good deals, promotions, clearance, sales, and Black Friday. The new arrivals showcase the latest collections, and items shipped within 24h are prepared and sent within 24 hours. The key times of the year follow a stable order: Black Friday in late autumn, year-end holidays, the winter sales, the French Days in spring, then the summer sales and back-to-school.

Frequently asked questions

What size of bag for a child playing handball?

A backpack of twenty to twenty-five litres is enough for shoes, clothing, and a water bottle. Choose a lightweight model, with adjustable straps and a chest strap, to keep it snug against their back on the way to the gym.

How to remove a handball glue stain from a bag?

First, scrape off the excess, then apply a special resin cleaner or a bit of vegetable oil, which dissolves the glue, before washing with soapy water. Act quickly: embedded resin is much harder to remove.

Can you wash a sports bag in a washing machine?

It depends on the label: many polyester bags withstand a 30-degree wash, slipped into a pillowcase, without strong spinning. Bags with a coated bottom or frame are better cleaned by hand to avoid cracking the coating.

What bag to take on a plane for a handball tournament?

A cabin-sized roller bag keeps shoes and an outfit with you in case of delayed luggage. Place the resin in a waterproof container and check the airline rules for cabin transport of such products.

Why choose the same bag for the whole team?

A matching bag for all players maintains the club's image while travelling and makes storage easier on the bus. Labeling with a name or initials on a tag or by printing helps easily identify one's own bag.
