So my daughter is in her 2nd year 10U, but this is her first season to be the full time catcher. She didn't catch before Fall and split time then. Now she's won the job hands down and is doing fantastic.
After one tournament though, she's realized that she needs to change her eating habits during tournament. She at like normal but then realized that whatever she eats, she's lifting every time she stands up from her crouch. Said she doesn't need anything extra weighing her down.
But then she couldnt decide what to eat at the ballpark when we'd been there for 12 hours so she refused to eat any of it. I ask this in the Catching forum because we've realized that the rules are different for a girl who plays 1st than a girl who is catching.
What do you're girls eat before, and especially during tournaments? How do they balance taking in enough food to have energy 4 games in with not eating stuff that makes them feel full, heavy and sluggish?
Thx
