How portable?
If by portable you just mean removable at the end of practice, we still have a water troft I made years ago and it couldn't have been easier.
Long piece of PVC, cap it at one end, thread at another, then put a shut of valve on it. Drill some holes and you have water.
If you want super portable and want to get creative we also have a product that we affectionately have always called the "water Bong". Dont use it much now a days, but it was a cooler, on a dolly, with a hose going into the cooler and leading up to a water pump in a box above it. The water pump ran off a 12v? battery (one of those large square ones) and split into 6 different lines that all had little shut off valves on them.

unfortunately in my experience with those things.. if you buy cheap you are usually buying again pretty soon
of course that would probably work out the same with the expensive ones

We take a milk crate and zip tie it to a hand truck, bungee a Gatorade jug on top of the crate. We have no running water at our practice site and this has worked well.

Hose. Drag it from place to place to make it portable. The longer the hose, the more portable it is.

water makes you weak. Hand out salt tablets, the kids can suck on em between plays.
I'm with the rest of the thread...you get what you pay for with water systems. We had the hose thing in high school, we'd move it around the practice field.
We have a few small water systems that seem to work better than the larger ones. It s a small, maybe 20-gal barrel with the pump, hoses, etc. It's lashed onto a hand truck, not a wagon, so the 3 we have seem to take a lot less abuse than the big one on a wagon. Also, the less water weight means less wear on the tubs...

we just go with a bunch of gatorade coolers and fill them up when we get to where we are going and use them to continue filling individual bottles as needed.
