Pre-Game Meal Tips

Before any intense activity like a hockey game, athletes need a small snack for optimal performance.  Young athletes need energy, so meals before competition should contain mostly carbohydrates and starches, which are easier to digest than fats and proteins, and help to steady blood sugar levels.  If you have too much protein before exercise  your body will stop using that protein and it will weigh you down or cause cramping.  It's best to exercise on a mostly empty stomach.  Eat at least three hours before exercise, and drink plenty of fluids.

Off-Ice Conditioning Program

You are expected to complete the following activities on your own.  Although conditioning and eating right are very important in our every day lives, school should be top priority.  Please be sure to manage your time effectively so that homework is completed each day.
