8 U.S. Junior Amateur Bent Tree Country Club SUGGESTIONS TO STAY HYDRATED DURING PLAY If there is a medical emergency, please find someone with a radio or call 911. GENERAL PRECAUTIONS Players and Spectators should be prepared to protect themselves from the heat. Players and spectators should bring umbrellas, nutritional snacks, sunscreen, light colored clothing, hats, etc. If you experience weakness, headache, trouble concentrating, nausea, muscle cramping or other symptoms in the heat, seek medical attention immediately. BEFORE THE START OF ACTIVITY It s important to make sure you re well hydrated during the few days leading up to your long activity day. An hour before you start your activity, try to drink about 16 ounces of water or other non-caffeinated fluid. Staying hydrated is critical to your performance and, more importantly, for preventing heat-related illnesses. Dehydration in athletes may lead to fatigue, headaches, decreased coordination, and muscle cramping. Other heatrelated illnesses, such as heat exhaustion and heatstroke, have even more serious consequences. Athletes need to pay attention to what and how much you are drinking before, during and after activity. Make sure you re hydrated before you start your golf game, you should drink another 4 to 8 ounces right be- fore you start. DURING THE ACTIVITY A general rule of thumb for fluid consumption during your golf game: You should take in 4 to 6 ounces of fluid every 20 minutes during your physical activity. Some of your fluid intake should include a sports drink to replace lost sodium and other minerals (electrolytes). The carbohydrates and electrolytes in the sports drink also can help you absorb the fluids faster. Pre-hydrate yourself before, hydrate during, and after your golf game! HYDRATION AWARENSS TIPS COURTESY OF BAY STAR AND TEXAS CHILDREN S HOSPITAL. WHAT TO EAT BEFORE A ROUND OF GOLF Eat lightly in the two hours leading up to tee time. Food in your digestive system diverts blood away from your brain and muscles, affecting concentration and physical performance. A meal approximately 1 ½ to 2 hours prior to play is ideal. Eat high quality complex carbohydrates, keep protein and fat intakes moderate since these slow down digestion. Eat slow and chew well. Drink pure water to adequately hydrate. Also, fresh fruits are great source of nutrition as well hydration source. However, never drastically alter your normal eating patterns prior to competition. WHAT TO EAT DURING A ROUND OF GOLF Take a mix of dried fruit and nuts. Eat just small amounts throughout the round to keep energy and concentration levels regulated. Organic nutrition bars are a convenient snack that can help keep blood sugar levels steady. Avoid the high glycemic varieties. Sip water regularly, especially on hot days where you sweat more. WHAT TO EAT AFTER A ROUND OF GOLF Consume a combination of protein and carbohydrate-rich foods and drinks as soon as possible after your round to replenish glycogen stores and replace fluids that have been lost. Replace potassium or sodium that has been lost during competition by using foods. Fruits and vegetables are excellent sources of potassium.
