Player Nutrition

Proper eating habits before, during and after a soccer game are very important.

Eat far enough ahead of a practice or game so the food doesn't make you sick. It's generally a good idea to eat a healthy meal about 3 or 4 hours before your practice or a match.

If you must snack, eat only a small quantity of a complex carbohydrate such as cereal, English muffins, pasta or a piece of toast. Make sure it's no less than an hour before practice or game time.

Three hours before any sport activity, drink a couple of glasses of water (at least 12 oz).  Don't gulp...  sip the water slowly. One hour before game time, drink a little more water. During the match, drink a little water every 15 minutes or so. Drinking fluids is important!.
