For those of you who dont know what a spirit bag is, where i come from its just something you give someone from your club before a comp. filled with things they might need like hair accessories, mini scissors etc.
do you guys have any ideas of things i could put in one?? i keep trying to think of thinks but im having a brain dead moment and cant think of anything!!

Cute idea!

Ideas to stick in, depending on money available of course but these are just some things I know I needed at comps.

Bobby pins
Sewing kit
Extra pair of tights
Hand towel
Mirror
Make up
Clear nail polish
Hairspray (they sell mini version of these!)
Nail file
Extra set of laces
Glitter Spray
Body Lotion
Tissues
Healthy snack, like trail mix or something similar
An inspirational poem, or card with good luck wishes
If you have room, something to help the skater keep warm if they have a lot of time between flights like a blanket, sweatshirt, etc.

If I think of anything else I'll add it :)

Well, some of the things I always use at competitions are:

hairspray
mascara
lip gloss
thread/needle (mini sewing kit)
nail clippers
hair ties/bobby pins
glitter
gloves
extra tights
extra laces
snacks (like granola bars or fruit snacks)
camera
cd with good warmup music
stretching mat
jump rope


Hope this helped!

Hey this is such a sweet idea :D
Love the suggestions, I'd add a few more things
ankle/knee guard
ankle tape
boot covers (maybe funky ones just for fun)
pretty pair of skate soakers
heat rub - the kind you put on your shoulders/knees if they ache. I think they come in plasters too, handy, not messy
a skate zipper pull!
