Pro-Tek 1500 Series Wheelie Duffle Bag for Junior & Club Cricketers
Overview
The Pro-Tek 1500 Series Wheelie Duffle Bag is a junior cricket wheelie duffle bag measuring 70cm x 33cm x 27cm. It suits junior and club cricketers who need full kit storage without extra bulk. A dedicated zipped side bat pocket keeps your bat protected and separate from the rest of your gear. Dual padded shoulder straps and a front carry handle give you three ways to move it.
Carrying a full cricket kit to training or an away match takes the right bag. This junior cricket wheelie duffle bag is built for those moments. The wide-open main compartment fits pads, gloves, a helmet, and clothing without a struggle. At 70cm long, it handles a full-size bat with room to spare.
Getting to nets quickly on a weeknight or loading up the car for a Saturday league match both call for a bag that works without fuss. The 1500 Series is that bag. It is light enough to carry on your back, compact enough to fit in a car boot, and organised enough to keep your kit in order all season. Available in Navy/Yellow and Black/Red, it suits the look of most club and school kits.
Features
- Spacious 70cm Main Compartment: Wide access panel makes packing pads, gloves, a helmet, and match clothing easy and quick, with no need to force items in.
- Fully Zipped Side Bat Pocket: Your bat sits protected and separate from the rest of your kit, reducing contact with studs, buckles, and damp clothing.
- Ventilated Shoe Compartment: Used footwear goes in a separate ventilated section, keeping muddy boots away from clean match kit and reducing odour build-up.
- Dual Padded Shoulder Straps: Carry the bag on your back to keep both hands free. Padded construction reduces shoulder pressure during longer walks to grounds or tube stations.
- Front Padded Carry Handle: Grab and go when you need a quick lift into the boot or onto a luggage rack without unclipping straps.
- Two Zipped Accessory Pockets: One at the top for your phone, keys, and wallet. One additional pocket for smaller items like grip wax, ball polish, or energy snacks.
- Mesh Bottle Holder: Side mesh pocket fits a standard 750ml water bottle or drinks flask for quick access during warm-ups and breaks.
Design and Materials
The 1500 Series feels well-constructed for its price point. The shell fabric is firm and wipe-clean, which matters when the bag gets muddy at the boundary edge or sits in a damp changing room. The zips run smoothly and the pullers are large enough to grip with one hand in a hurry. Nothing here feels flimsy.
At 70cm x 35cm x 35cm, the bag sits in the useful middle ground between a compact junior bag and a full senior wheelie. It is large enough for senior club players who travel light, but the weight and dimensions mean a junior cricketer can handle it without it dragging on the ground. Two colour options, Navy/Yellow and Black/Red, keep the design clean and kit-friendly without looking cheap. This is a bag built for regular use across a long UK cricket season, from April preseason nets through to the September close.
Key Technologies
Wide-Access Main Compartment: The large opening runs almost the full length of the bag. This means you can see and reach every item inside without unpacking half the bag to find your batting gloves.
Dedicated Zipped Bat Pocket: A separate side compartment with a full zip keeps your bat isolated. This protects the blade from scratches caused by studs, clips, and sharp helmet edges inside the main compartment.
Ventilated Shoe Section: Mesh or perforated material in the shoe compartment allows air flow, which slows the build-up of moisture and smell from used cricket boots after a long match day.
Dual Carry System: Padded double shoulder straps convert the bag into a backpack for station walks and tube journeys. The front padded handle lifts the bag for short transfers without unclipping any straps.

VKS Review
We have handled a lot of cricket bags at VKS over more than 50 years of selling cricket gear, and we know what separates a useful bag from a frustrating one. The Pro-Tek 1500 Series does the basics very well. The main compartment at 70cm x 35cm x 35cm genuinely holds a full junior or light senior kit. The bat pocket keeps your blade away from the clutter. The ventilated shoe section actually ventilates. There is no wasted space here.
For a junior cricketer heading to club nets twice a week and a Saturday league match, this is a strong choice. It is not overbuilt with features they will not use. The padded shoulder straps make it comfortable to carry from the car to the pavilion, and the compact shape means it fits in the boot without rearranging everything else. Senior players who travel light and want a second, smaller bag for training-only sessions will also find it practical. If you carry three bats and a full set of wicket-keeping gear, step up to the Pro-Tek 2500 or 3500. But for everyday club cricket, the 1500 Series hits a fair price for the quality on offer. You can see the full Pro-Tek range in our London store in Ealing or order online with next day delivery.
Q&A Section
Is this bag suitable for a junior cricketer?
Yes, the 1500 Series is one of our most recommended bags for junior club players. At 70cm x 33cm x 27cm it is large enough for a full junior kit but compact enough for a younger player to manage independently. The padded double straps make it comfortable to carry on the back to and from the ground.
Can a full-size cricket bat fit in this bag?
Yes. The bag is 70cm long and the dedicated side bat pocket runs the full length of the bag. A full-size adult cricket bat fits securely with the zip closed. The bat sits separate from the rest of your kit so there is no risk of damage from buckles or studs.
Does the 1500 Series have a separate shoe compartment?
Yes, it has a ventilated shoe section that keeps footwear separate from the rest of your cricket gear. Ventilation in the compartment slows moisture build-up from damp or muddy boots after a match. This stops the smell from spreading to clean kit and clothing.
What is the best junior cricket bag for club players on a budget?
The Pro-Tek 1500 Series is a strong answer to that question. It offers dedicated compartments for a bat, shoes, and accessories at a lower price than most branded alternatives. It is practical enough for regular club use and does not add unnecessary weight to a junior player's load.
Should I choose the 1500 or the Pro-Tek 2500 Series?
Choose the 1500 if you carry a standard kit and want a lighter, more compact bag. Choose the 2500 if you carry multiple bats or a full senior kit including wicket-keeping gear. The 2500 is a larger full-length bag with more internal storage. The 1500 is the better pick for juniors or senior players who travel light.
Does the bag have a pocket for a phone or wallet?
Yes, there is a zipped pocket at the top of the bag designed for a mobile phone, keys, and a wallet. A second zipped accessory pocket provides extra storage for smaller items like grip wax, snacks, or a ball polish cloth. Both pockets close securely with zip fasteners.
Which colours is the Pro-Tek 1500 available in?
The 1500 Series comes in two colours: Navy/Yellow and Black/Red. Both options suit standard club and school cricket kits and look clean and professional on the boundary. The colour runs across the zips and trim as well as the main body of the bag.
