So your kid has joined a competitive sports team and will be traveling for tournaments and you don’t have a clue as to what to do. Don’t worry, I’m here to help you. We are wrapping up our final tournament of the summer season and there are a few things I learned you need to survive a weekend of back to back games.

I am going to warn you. The list is long. And you won’t need every single thing for every single game. But any good sports’ mom will have the following at her disposal. 

This list is every evolving! Each game and tournament, I think of something new that I could add. Sometimes I feel a little bit like Mary Poppins because I seem to anything and everything we could possibly need. Or maybe I am like Boy Scouts and I am always prepared. Whatever you want to call me, I have gotten us out of a pickle or two with my stocked bag!
