MOVE MORE

SNACK SMART

Pop Warner is just as committed to helping athletes develop healthy habits as we are to instilling the values of

scholarship and sportsmanship. Coaches and parents can make 3 simple calls that will help

players perform their best, on and o� the field: Move More, Drink Right, and Snack Smart.

Is your team ready to play their best through the 4th quarter? Get them ready for game day by running active practices, where players spend less time standing still and more time moving. More physical activity also helps players reach the recommended 60 minutes per day for kids.

Ask players to bring at least two full water bottles to every practice and game.

Players can forget to stop and drink water even when they’re thirsty, which can lead to dehydration. If possible, take scheduled water breaks as often as every 15-20 minutes. Keep water bottles near the sidelines for easy access.

If your team has a snack at practices or games, provide fruits or vegetables and save the treats for a special occasion. Coaches can share a healthy snack list with parents at the beginning of the season.

Healthy snacks give players the fuel they need to perform their best and teaches them that healthy eating goes hand-in-hand with fitness.

Encourage players to stay active throughout the summer so they’re ready for the first day of the season.

Volunteer to bring extra water to the field for refilling water bottles. If you bring snacks to practices or games, bring healthy foods like oranges, carrot sticks, or bananas.

We asked Pop Warner coaches their strategies for keeping players moving more at practice. Here’s what they said:
