A nutritionist works with our players and leads classroom sessions on this subject. These sessions discuss the importance of eating properly, and the specific types of meals needed for high performance athletes. We test each player's body composition and work with the player so he develops a healthy, sensible diet, which will also maximize the player's performance on the ice. Part of the player's daily training record includes monitoring his diet. Parents are kept apprised of the player's progress so they have complete confidence that their child is not dwelling on the issue of food or diet but rather is just establishing good eating habits for high performance. Sports ergogenics (sports enhancing drugs) will be discussed. The negative aspects of these types of drugs will be emphasized.
