Cheerleading Bags: How to Choose


You have your uniform, poms and your shoes. Now where are you going to put them? Show your spirit with a cheer bag. With so many styles to choose from, there is a perfect option for every cheerleader! But how do you choose the one that is right for you? Here is a guide to help you do just that!


When choosing a bag, consider what you are going to be carrying and how the bag will be used. Will you be carrying just your shell and skirt? Carrying just your shoes or poms? Perhaps a pom bag, backpack, or garment bag is all you need. Or will you be carrying your entire uniform as well poms, a change of clothes, and other accessories? Then you are in need of a duffel bag. If you are using your bag just to carry your things to cheerleading practice, then a simple in stock bag may be all you need. If you are using your bag for games or competitions, a more complex duffel bag may be necessary.


There are many cheerleading bag styles to consider, most depending on personal preference.


Duffel Bag: The most traditional cheer bag style comes in a variety of sizes and shapes. The duffel has handles and/or a shoulder strap as well as zipper closure.

Backpack: Easy on the back, the backpack is worn over both shoulders and has a zipper closure.

Sling Bag: Similar to a backpack, a sling is worn over one shoulder.

Tote Bag: Simple bag with carrying straps with zippered or no closure.

Pom Bag: A bag sized just for a set of pom poms, usually with drawstring closure and shoulder strap(s).

Garment Bag: Hanging bag used especially for cheerleading uniforms to keep them clean and wrinkle free.


Whatever style you choose, you need to consider the features of the cheerleading bag. Inner and/or outer pockets may be necessary to carry your water bottle, cell phone, and keys. Sturdy straps are important as well. You may even want to consider a bag with a removable shoulder strap, removable inner bags, and a bag with a place for an id tag.

No matter what style you choose, be sure to get it in your team’s colors. Show your team unity and order matching bags for your team, complete with your school initials embroidered on them. Most cheerleading bags can be purchased with an in-stock design, customized with a team print, or with no design at all.
