Nutrion for Youth Soccer

Andrew Hemingway - Friday, October 03, 2008

Nutrition is not a topic regularly covered here on this blog, but this week Sam Snow Director of Coaching Ed. sent out an email with some new FIFA guidelines. I found these to be very good guidelines for nutrition and wanted to pass them along. Click this link: http://www.fifa.com/mm/document/afdeveloping/medical/nutrition%20booklet_e_1534.pdf

I'm sure that you will see that some of the guidelines will not apply to every group, and in about the middle of this pdf they break it down by players groups. This si GREAT!! The youth guidelines are fantastic and should be taken very seriously. I do not see why any coach would not follow these to a "T".  I thank Sam Snow and US Youth Soccer for this resource!
