Granola bars, protein energy bars, bananas, blueberries, pickles, turkey, strawberries, peanut butter crackers, nuts, WATER, Pedialyte, Gatorade... No junk!!
Make sure the kids eat a good carb meal for dinner the night before all meets and get plenty of rest. Examples like spaghetti, tortilla wraps, pita sandwich, pizza, chicken/rice bowl etc...
Morning of the meet: at least 2 hours before start of the meet eat about 150grams of carbs like oatmeal w/toast or bagel, bananas for potassium. Hydrate body (Water) everyday all day during the season.
