Why Milk is the secret Weapon for young athletes,

Active kids need the right fuel to stay strong, energized, and injury-free. Hydration and proper nutrition are key—but is your child getting enough of what they need?

Stay Hydrated, Stay Strong

Young athletes should drink at least 2.5 litres of fluid daily, especially in hot weather. Proper hydration prevents exhaustion and helps maintain energy levels.

Hydration Tip: Kids under 10 should drink an extra 125ml (half a glass) beyond thirst; older kids need 250ml (one full glass) more.

Build Stronger Bones with Dairy

Bones are like a savings account—what your child puts in now will impact them for life! Calcium is crucial, especially during growth spurts between 12–14 years old.

🚨 Calcium Deficiency Risks:
❌ Weak bones and fractures
❌ Stunted growth
❌ Poor athletic performance

Solution? 3–4 servings of dairy daily! Low-fat milk, yogurt, and cheese provide essential calcium, protein, and energy for growing athletes.
