Good health

Intro
Cricket is as much a way of life as it is a sport, and this means it is also about health.  Below are some guidelines that I feel should be laid out.


What not to do
-No smoking near scorers or players, and never on the field
-Players should avoid soft drinks
-Avoid sugary/salty/high fat snacks (gives you short term energy which as a result leaves you without energy in the long term )


Tips on what to do
-Try iced mint tea: benefits are its cool & refreshing and it helps your stomach (takes away the discomfort)
-Try an apple or other fruits such as bananas and oranges


Why would you do this?
So most of you after reading this must be wondering, why would you do this. Well my answer to that is to simply think of someone else for a change... Smoking is not doing you any good let alone the people around you and why would you have low nutrition food after playing sport or during sport as you lose the long term benefit of playing sport; i.e. you wont remain fit if you have McDonald's every time you go out and play sport.
