Performance Nutritionist at Yorkshire Rugby Academy Sarah Chantler shares her knowledge and experience of sports nutrition with UK Coaching's Chris Chapman, exploring how nutrition fits into the holistic development of athletes.


What are the dietary considerations for athletes on the move? Travelling creates additional challenges that can easily lead to unhealthy choices, so it’s important to encourage athletes to be proactive, to have healthy habits and plan correctly. Sarah discusses the importance of integrating nutrition into a match/game/event plan, offering advice about how to ensure your athletes give it their due consideration.
