• Moderate your caffeine & sugar intake to increase your focus.
• Eat a healthy snack 1/2 hour to an hour before practices and games to increase your strength and focus.  Snacks should be a mix of protein and carbohydrates, not just sugar.
• Cut back on carbohydrates to maintain weight.  Foods high in carbohydrates are bread, cereal, pasta, non-diet soca, gatorade and foods high in sugar.  (Whole wheat breads and pasta are better than white bread.  Non-sugar cereals are better than sugar cereals).
• Drink water to avoid dehydration and increase energy.  When exercising, drink small amounts of water before you get thirsty to avoid dehydration.
