Travel Game Readiness Checklist

Travel games add extra variables: long bus rides, strange locker rooms, different routines. Athletes who prepare for travel perform closer to their normal level instead of feeling flat or distracted.

A simple checklist keeps players from forgetting essentials and helps them arrive ready to compete, not scramble.

Travel checklist:

• Pack gear, snacks, and water the night before
• Use the bus for light mobility or mental prep, not just scrolling
• Stick as close as possible to your normal pregame routine
• Have a plan for recovery on the way home
