Weather:
· This looks to be our first real rain game. Weather Network says there will be thunderstorms and 22 degrees,with a 15km wind. I will have our canopy for the bench but please bring your umbrellas! Even with the rain and slightly cooler temperature, players must still PREHYDRATE. As always, I will have a cooler with ice water towels for the players.
Pre-Game Meal and Hydration:
- make sure to pre-hydrate: drink one 500ml bottle of water between 3:00-3:30pm, then another glass of water between 5:00-5:30pm.
- · eat early and light e.g. small serving of pasta and lean meat (remember our meals at Sherkston), dried fruit, or my favorite choice - a banana
- · absolutely no fast-food before the game ... Have a full supper after the game.
- Remember to bring lots of your own LABELLED WATER for sipping and splashing on your head during the game!
