The invention relates to a bag for protecting sports equipment, particularly golf clubs, from damage due to temperature variations. The bag can be comprised of several individual panels, each comprising an insulated material, which create an inner volume into which a golf bag can be inserted. When the top panel is sealed, the insulated material can protect the contents of the bag from damage due to temperature variations.

1. A thermally insulated sports bag for protecting sports equipment from damage caused by temperature variations, said bag comprising: a bottom panel interposed between a first side panel and a second side panel along a first axis, and a front panel and a back panel along a second axis, said first and second axes being perpendicular to each other,each of said front, back, first and second side panels are permanently affixed to the bottom panel along a periphery, and are configured to extend upward to define an inner volume of the sports bag;a top panel interposed between the first side panel and the second side panel along the first axis, and the front panel and the back panel along the a second axis, said top panel being permanently affixed to the first side panel opposite to the bottom panel,each of said front, back, bottom, top, first and second side panels including an outer layer having a waterproof portion, a middle thermal protection layer configured to isolate the inner volume from temperature variations, and an inner layer having a soft portion configured to prevent items located within the inner volume from becoming scratched; anda securing unit configured to secure the top panel to at least one of the second side panel, the front panel and the back panel to enclose the inner volume of the sports bag. 2. The thermally insulated sports bag of claim 1, wherein each of said layers are permanently secured together to create a single multilayer element. 3. The thermally insulated sports bag of claim 2, wherein when an external temperature is high, said layered materials are configured to maintain a temperature within the inner volume that is lower than said external temperature. 4. The thermally insulated sports bag of claim 2, wherein when an external temperature is low, said layered materials are configured to maintain a temperature within the inner volume that is higher than said external temperature. 5. The thermally insulated sports bag of claim 1, wherein said inner volume is configured to encompass at least one of a golf bag and golf clubs. 6. The thermally insulated sports bag of claim 1, wherein said securing unit includes at least one of a zipper, hook and loop material, compression fitting and magnetic elements. 7. The thermally insulated sports bag of claim 1, wherein said bag is fully collapsible. 8. The thermally insulated sports bag of claim 1, further comprising at least one of a fixed handle, a retractable handle, a pocket and a set of wheels. 9. A thermally insulated sports bag for protecting sports equipment from damage caused by temperature variations, said bag comprising: a bottom panel interposed between a first side panel and a second side panel along a first axis, and a front panel and a back panel along a second axis, said first and second axes being perpendicular to each other,each of said front, back, first and second side panels are permanently affixed to the bottom panel along a periphery, and are configured to extend upward to define an inner volume of the sports bag;a top panel interposed between the first side panel and the second side panel along the first axis, and the front panel and the back panel along the a second axis, said top panel being permanently affixed to the first side panel opposite to the bottom panel,each of said front, back, bottom, top, first and second side panels including an outer layer having a waterproof portion, a middle thermal protection layer configured to isolate the inner volume from temperature variations, and an inner layer having a soft portion configured to prevent items located within the inner volume from becoming scratched, andeach of said layers being permanently secured together to create a single multilayer element; anda securing unit configured to secure the top panel to at least one of the second side panel, the front panel and the back panel to enclose the inner volume of the sports bag, said bag being fully collapsible. 10. A method of manufacturing a thermally insulated sports bag for protecting sports equipment from damage caused by temperature variations, said method comprising: selecting a flexible material having a thermal protection layer;cutting a pattern from said material to form a bottom panel, a first side panel, a second side panel, a front panel, a back panel and a top panel;affixing the first side panel and the second side panel to the bottom panel along a first axis;affixing the front panel and the back panel to the bottom panel along a second axis, said first and second axes being perpendicular to each other;affixing the top panel to the first side panel opposite to the bottom panel; andsecuring the top panel to each of the second side panel, the front panel and the back panel via a securing unit,wherein said material includes an outer layer having a waterproof portion, a middle layer comprising the thermal layer, and an inner layer having a soft portion, andsaid method further including binding each of the layers together to form a single element. 11. The method of claim 10, further comprising: attaching at least one of a fixed handle, a retractable handle, a pocket and a set of wheels to the sports bag.
