Hi Everyone,
It is now time to think Football! This is summer camp season, and the Hartford Youth Football Camp starts today. There are other camp opportunities - check out our Links page at www.hartfordyouthfootball.com where you can find them for not only youth, but high school as well.
It is important for players to remember as the weather gets hot to stay hydrated throughout the day. Another good thing to remember is not to eat too heavily prior to a practice. Eat light, and bring water. Avoid sports drinks, stick to water (Gatorade if you have to), and especially avoid soda - not good for muscle development. Drink chocolate milk as a recovery drink after practice to get vitamins back. It's also a good idea for kids to start running now to get in shape for when we start practicing in August. It makes the first practices easier to manage.
Just a few tips as we move into the core practice/camp season for football.
I will be posting more now that activities are picking up. Watch for coaches blogs to start up again soon, once we start practicing in August (only 53 days away!)
Go Hartford Football!
Coach Rob
