Buy squash bags: the perfect bag for every squash player
Looking for a new squash bag? At Squashpoint you'll find the largest online range of squash bags in the UK. A good squash bag is more than a way to get your gear from A to B — it's the foundation of a well-organised squash session. Whether you play squash occasionally or hit the court several times a week for competitive matches and tournaments: at Squashpoint you'll find a squash bag that perfectly suits your usage, your level and your needs.
Two types of squash bags: backpack or racket bag
When it comes to squash bags, you essentially have two types to choose from: the squash backpack and the racket bag. A squash backpack is compact, lightweight and ideal if you cycle or take public transport to the court. You carry it comfortably on your back with your hands free. There's room for one or two rackets, your clothing, shoes and small accessories. The racket bag is larger and offers much more space — for multiple rackets, extra clothing, shoes and all your other squash gear. Racket bags come in all sizes and can be carried by a handle, over one shoulder or — with most larger models — as a backpack with two shoulder straps. For squash players who go to the court regularly or play tournaments, the racket bag is the most practical choice.
How many rackets do you want to take?
Racket bags come in different sizes, expressed by the number of rackets they hold: 3, 6, 8, 10, 12 or 15 rackets. But the number of rackets is only part of the story — the size of the bag also determines how much room you have for clothing, shoes and accessories. A 3-racket bag is compact and suited to squash players who bring one or two rackets and don't carry much extra kit. A 6- or 8-racket bag is the most popular choice for recreational and advanced players: enough space for multiple rackets, a set of clothing and your shoes, without lugging a full suitcase around. A 10- or 12-racket bag is ideal for serious competitive players who always want a complete arsenal at tournaments. And the 15-racket bag is the ultimate choice for the dedicated squash player or coach who wants to bring absolutely everything.
Compartments: everything in its place
A good squash bag is cleverly organised. The number of main compartments determines how easy it is to find your things on the go. Most racket bags have two or three main compartments: one for your rackets and one or two for clothing and other items. Accessory pockets are handy for small items such as balls, grips, eyewear and your phone. But perhaps the most underrated feature: a separate shoe compartment. This keeps your squash shoes apart from your rackets and clothing — and it's also ideal for wet or sweaty kit after a match. Once you've had one, you won't want to be without it.
Carrying system: handle, one or two shoulder straps
How you carry a squash bag matters more than you might think — especially if you have it with you several times a week. Most squash bags have a handle for short carries, but the real difference lies in the shoulder straps. A single shoulder strap works well for smaller bags and shorter distances. For larger bags, a single strap becomes less comfortable over time — especially when the bag is fully loaded. In that case, go for a bag with two shoulder straps that you can wear as a backpack. This distributes the weight across both shoulders and is far more comfortable over longer distances or when you're carrying other things too.
Quality and finish: recreational use or intensive tournament play?
Most brands offer squash bags across different ranges, with the quality of materials and finish varying by range — and that's reflected in the price. An entry-level model is perfectly fine for the squash player who uses their bag occasionally and doesn't demand high durability. But if your squash bag needs to go to the court, competitive matches and tournaments several times a week, it's worth choosing a higher-quality model. Reinforced zips, hard-wearing outer materials, sturdy shoulder straps with good padding and durable attachment points — these are the details that make the difference between a bag that lasts two years and one that starts to fray after six months. Invest in quality that matches your usage and you'll enjoy it for years to come.
