Description

The WAVE Sport Nutrition Curriculum uses youth's interest in sports to teach them about healthy eating and hydration to fuel a healthy, active body for life. This knowledge helps athletes manage body weight and avoid unwanted weight gain in adulthood. The curriculum was pilot-tested with high school soccer players, but the content is applicable to all active adolescents and can be adapted for youth involved in many different sports and activities. The curriculum contains seven modules with powerpoint slides and instructor notes.Free download from website.
