Creating Nutrition Success for your Athletes
Lethbridge- The Alberta Sport Development Centre Southwest, in partnership with Healthy Weights, a division of Alberta Health Services, is excited to present a Winning Edge Seminar on ‘Creating Nutrition Success for your Athletes’.
The seminar will take place on Monday, June 15th at 7pm. The session will be held in the Fredericks room at Lethbridge College.
The seminar will specifically focus on the importance of good nutrition and hydration practices in our developing, 13 to 18 year old athletes. With so many of our teenage athletes participating in high intensity weekend competitions, how they prepare and recover from a nutritional perspective can greatly influence their results and potential development. This seminar will provide a base knowledge of proper athlete diets, as well as how to best prepare for weekend competitions and recover from them. The information provided will be extremely valuable for coaches, athletes and parents, as they prepare for the gauntlet of summer weekend tournaments.
Leading the presentation will be Darren Agopsowicz. A Registered Dietitian for Alberta Health Services, Darren has worked with numerous local athletes and teams as a consultant.
Cost for the session is $10. Participants will receive a practical session on nutrition for athletes, a coach’s sports nutrition binder, loaded with useful information and tips, and a certificate of participation.
