cram it all in and hope for the best? 

[HallamKeeper]

I have the GN1000 2015.

Shoes in the bottom shoe pocket, obviously. Batting pads in first upside down, then thigh pads, keeping pads, helmet with box and batting gloves/inners inside. Bats in the bat sleeves, controversially. Keeping gloves, inners, whites, spare batting gloves and small absorbo towel in the top pocket. Spare inners, socks etc in the side pocket (can't get much else in). Old ball, energy sachets, electrolyte tabs and first aid kit/shower bag in front pocket. Carrier bag with food just to look like a pro. Probably also dragging a katchet board and a few other toys in the hope we might warm up.

Why pads upside down?

[HallamKeeper]

Wider at the top so I put them upside down so there is more space at the top for my helmet. Tend to get my keeping stuff out as soon as I arrive and pretty much assume we are bowling as I bat 5 so have plenty of time to change pads if we bat. Hate rushing.

You put your box inside your helmet? That's not a nice mix after a long day in the sun...

[HallamKeeper]

My helmet is in much worse state, so to speak. Usually give the box a quick wipe if it is sweaty but after 5 mins air drying it is fine. Only stays in my bag for an hour until I'm home then it is all out to air dry over Sunday. Also wash my helmet sweat pad after each use, sick of getting bad skin after a hot day.

This thread kinda makes me glad I didn't get a duffle, I just got a massive bag so I just throw everything vaguely towards my bag and do the zip up. No strategy, no organization, no worrys

[HallamKeeper]

Our changing room is about 3m x 3m so I was under pressure to slim down, in both senses.

Get mrs senior to do it she likes folding clothes.

I have bottles of water and small towels in this pocket

Side Pockets:
-3 pairs of Oakley sunglasses
-Match inner gloves
-Spare spikes

I don't currently have anything in there but I will place some small items when it comes to game day

[Churchy1989]

@TGB1997  like how you are very prepared!

Thank you During the summer my clubs nets are on a Thursday evening so my gloves are often sweaty for Saturdays even though I'm mainly a bowler I like to be sure. I'm also very superstitious with my kit so it all needs to be in a certain way

only thing I don't like about the shoe tunnel is how squished the shoes get...am going to try shoving a little cardboard "shell" for the shoes in the tunnel.

Was thinking the same thing myself having packed my spikes in my GM Duffle today. Going to have a look around the house for a tuppaware box big enough to take them. That'll give it rigidity at the bottom of the bag aswell to help it stand up?

[TGB1997]

I haven't had a problem yet as I put my boots in the tunnel very early when packing it for the first time but I'll have a look and keep an eye on it over the season
