104 C H A P T E R 1 0 i G E N E R A LHydration has been neglected down through the years in sport so, if coaches can inculcate goodhabits, all players will benefit in the long term.It is very important that the coach uses simple, age appropriate language when extolling theadvantages of proper hydration to the young players.3. NutritionThis is an area of vital importance not just during the playing years but for life.The coach can, through advice, example, encouragement and cajoling, help the young players tomake sensible decisions re food intake.Young players need:(a) Bread, cereals, potatoes, fruit and vegetables - regularly.(b) Meat, eggs, milk, cheese, yogurt – regularly.(c) Biscuits, chocolate, sweets, crisps, chips, takeaways, fried food – should only beconsumed in moderation or, better still, as an occasional treat or reward for “beinggood” in school or at training or just, maybe, at the weekend.A suggestion here would be to display the Department of Health and Children’s Food PyramidChart on the dressing-room wall.An occasional, almost incidental, chat and discussion on the food pyramid might then becomepart of the training schedule.Car/Child Analogy might help to bring home to young players the importance (a) of goodnutrition (b) the effects of poor nutrition on health and sporting performance.Car: when parent/guardian brings gleaming new car home from showroom they treat it with greatcare (usually!) The car is washed and cleaned regularly but, most importantly of all, properamounts of top grade petrol, oil, water are put into the car to produce the best possible motoringperformance. No car has ever, of its own volition, gone to the garage and taken on board substandardor harmful fuel!Child: When parent/guardian brings gleaming new baby home from hospital they also treat itwith great care. Baby is washed and cleaned regularly and fed wholesome food. However as babygrows up it often gradually turns its back on all this care and attention and begins to introducelarge amounts of “bad” fuel e.g. crisps, sweets, chocolate, chips, fizzy drinks, thereby being lesscareful with the care given to the body than that which parent/guardian gives to car. Too muchof this sub-standard fuel can effect camogie performance and even harm the body.Appealing to the young player’s intelligence like above can often produce better results thanlecturing, “sermonizing” etc.Camogie Foundation Coaching Course
