The sports bag assembly, which can accommodate the transportation and
storage of sports equipment, entails a fully and permanently assembled
integral transportation system comprising two or more wheels. The wheels
can be deployed and retracted with a single mechanical movement, and may
be stowed within the geometry of a traditional golf bag. The golf bag
assembly will fit within the recessed areas of platforms attached to the
rear of motorized carts; within conventional storage racks, lockers, and
auto trunks typically found around golf courses and in residences; and
within traditional golf travel cover containers or systems. The golf bag
assembly also includes a ventilated club storage compartment, to
facilitate the drying of grips, and drainage in the event of inclement
weather. The golf bag assembly includes a support and suspension system
that restrains the grip ends of clubs, thereby stabilizing and enhancing
the protection of clubs during transport and play.
