How many of you have problems getting equipment collected at the end of the season. It seems we always have a few kids that don't turn everything in and it really makes a mess of trying to inventory all of the equipment. Does anyone have consequences for not turning the equipment on a specific day or by a specific amount of time?

we require a $150 equipment deposit check when they get their equipment.. We don't cash the check- we just hold on to it until it's time to collect the equipment- if they don't bring it in we deposit the check..

All of our teams (HS, JV, Fresh, and MS) do it immediately after the final game. We have a few coaches go into the locker room and all lockers get completely emptied. If there is any football equipment in any locker the bolt cutters come out and the locker is emptied. It may take a lot of time after a Friday night game but it is done.

We had a check out sheet that had the replacement cost of everything checked out. The player signed it when he got all of his gear. If it wasn't returned, a note went to the parent stating that such and such item was not returned and it cost $$$ to replace. Then after that, the student got placed on a list to where: he/she could not go out for any sport , attend any dance, field trip etc.., receive their yearbook, if a senior, walk in graduation ceremony, grad night celebrations, and a whole bunch of other things until the matter was settled.

Does anyone have consequences for not turning the equipment on a specific day or by a specific amount of time? Its a nightmare if you dont just collect it all immediately after the last game. Id rather have to sort thru it alone the next day then have to chase it down two weeks into wrestling season for example. Right after the last game I found it best to make sure the kids just piled their shoulder pads in one stack, helmets in another and pants/girdles etc in another...heck, last year I had 55 players equipment in my phys ed office, couldnt move an inch in there...but I had all of my stuff back by 6 pm on a tuesday afternoon.

agreed got to do it after the last game, you still may have things missing but easier to track down and we make the students and parents sign a agreement at the beginning of the season detailing the cost of the equipment so if it doesn't turn up we can place it on their school records.

We do this too...plus the GAME JERSEYS don't come up "missing"

We don't have an issue with game jersey's because the kids buy them before sophomore year and then it is theirs for the duration of their career. We must be lucky--we've never had missing gear and we don't have the kids turn it in until the Tuesday after the season ends.

We have over $9000 in equipment that hasn't been turned in yet (we have been done for a month).
Just like during the season, no sense of urgency! ;D

If we are done for the season most of it is returned that night if we are at home or the next day

After our last game we have each kid put all of his equipment that belongs to the school, including the lock on his locker, in a travel bag and turn it in that night.
