Sport Scholars learn about importance of nutrition

Yesterday afternoon, our Sports scholars attended the first in a series of lectures, with their first subject focusing on the importance of nutrition as a tool to support growth, recovery and performance. The talk included a mixture of practical and theory, giving students the opportunity to create and taste snacks that are designed to be consumed pre and post exercise. Pupils came away from the lecture with a number of options for them to recreate, as well as ideas for food to bring with them to future training sessions so that they can take greater responsibility for their athletic development.
