Taking Valuables With You Isn’t a New Idea.
Locker rooms are shared spaces. Players come and go, doors open and close, and during a game or practice, everyone who would normally be watching the room is somewhere else.
That’s why teams have been taking phones, wallets, keys and other valuables with them for years. Sometimes it’s a backpack. Sometimes it’s a helmet bag or drawstring bag. Sometimes everything just gets thrown together and handed to a coach or team manager.
DaLocker gives that routine a dedicated place for your stuff. Compact enough to take with you, organized enough to keep everything separated, and easy to grab when it’s time to play.
This isn’t just locker-room folklore. Across recreational, collegiate and professional sports, unsecured valuables are a real and recurring target.
Kentucky High School Athletic Association
Even with championship security and controlled locker-room access, KHSAA recommends taking team valuables out of the locker room and keeping them at the bench.
“Use a ‘valuables bag’ to be taken to the team bench for added security.”
D.C. United / CONCACAF Champions League
Even professional locker rooms aren’t automatically secure. D.C. United players had phones and cash stolen during a CONCACAF Champions League match while they were on the pitch.
“Several players had smartphones and cash stolen.”
University of Colorado Football / Rose Bowl
Security personnel don’t eliminate the problem either. Colorado football players reported jewelry, headphones and cash stolen from their locker room during a game at the Rose Bowl even though private security had been assigned to the area.
“Jewelry, headphones and cash were stolen.”
Adult / Recreational Hockey Players
Recreational players have arrived at the same solution themselves: don’t leave the important stuff behind. Players describe collecting phones, wallets and keys and taking the bag to the bench during games.
“We put all our phones and wallets in a bag and bring it to the bench.”
