H2O Water Please

H2O.. Yes, that stands for water!
Your body has it’s own way of controlling temperature. Drinking water before, during, and after physical activity is a great way to keep your body’s air conditioner working.You should start drinking water a few hours before you go out to play.
Keep a bottle of water with you to drink during time outs, half time, or any other breaks that you get. Try to drink about 10 large gulps every 15- 20 minutes.
Don’t forget, when you sweat, your body loses water. It’s up to you to keep replenishing your water supply!
How much do you drink when you play? What do you drink now?
