Laf, this one is actually longer than my indoor checklist! I'm not a friend of the heat so I've got to be particularly prepared:

1. Water
2. Gatorade
3. Lots of small snacks
4. Ice
5. Long Sleve T
6. 2+ Sleeveless T's for playing (I'm in no shape to be playing topless, thanks!)
7. Sunglasses
8. Towel
9. 2+ Visors
10. Regular Ball Cap
11. Wide brim (surfer style) Hat
12. Wifey
13. Lynn
14. Tim
15. Sunblock
16. Chapstick
17. My normal volleybag
18. 2+ pairs of socks
19. Complete change of clothes for when Jones & I are done dominating and looking fashonable outcastic at the Cracker Barrel.

I accept being 3rd on that list since it's only proper to list your wife and partner first.

Haha Yeah, Maybe Air Diney will put you first on her list! I'm thinking putting your partner on the list first might be more important than your partner... although when your partner can also be your partner I guess it doesn't really matter. Yeah have fun figuring that one out!

She's first on mine... Can't play without her...

Everything else can be done without putting anyone else on my list. It just wouldn't be as much fun. And then I'd have to drive.

Well, I guess I make it onto two guys checklists then. I can't complain too much! LOL

New thing on my checklist is stupid patellar strap. It was a life saver on Sunday, I'm not sure I would have made it through the tournament without it. But on the flip side, ankle braces are off the outdoor list. For some reason on the grass they slow me down and since I haven't seen any women block in BB yet, I'm not too concerned about tangling with someone under the net.

Awh!

Thanks for puttin' me first on your list, Timmy! I'll put you first on mine too. I think hubby put me first cause he knows I may forget that I am playing volleyball, where Jonesy would probably remember better!!! Also, he lives with me, so easier to remind me first.

I am infamous for my 50lb beach bag... I am not 100% sure what is actually in it
Always a ball, water, and towel everything else is optional!

13. Sneakers, Flip Flops
14. Knee Brace and Patellar Strap
15. Sunblock if outdoor except MUDD V-BALL
16. Chapstick
