Hey coaches im haveing a problem with nutrition before games. We dont have a pregame meal bc the school wont do it, so we have kids go out and get something 2 eat b4 the game. They eat what they want and sometimes it is not good. I would like some input on what is good food for a pregame meal, i have some parents who want 2 put it on for the kids but they want 2 know what 2 feed them. I told them the following and i wanted 2 b sure bc this is what we 8 in college for pregame meal
1. Baked chicken 2. Baked potatoe, no cheese or scream just butter 3. Buttered noodles 4. Panckakes and syrup 5. Rolls and honey 6. Ham sandwiches
Anything else u can think of would be gr8! We seem to be running out of gas in some of our games. We tried a simple version of this last week and we had a lot better performance.

We order pizza for our kids on thursdays after practice. Friday after school a woman caters in baked chicken or roast beef, green beans, rice, mac and cheese and a roll. The kids just get a small spoonful of those side items but as coaches we pig out!!!!! Homecooking at its finest!

See if you can get a couple of churches in town to rotate feeding the kids. Thats what they do here, maybe you can swing it.
We usually eat:
Pasta dishes, Sandwiches, Baked potatoes.
We eat one of those as the main course, and always have a fruit plate as well. NO TEA OR COKES.

we have a mom that brings in food on gamedays for us, usually spaghetti or baked chicken, one time she brought some tri tips. the kids and other coaches love it and the food smells pretty good. i havent tried any of it all year, i just cant eat on gamedays after 3. never could when i played, cant now. if i eat b4 a game i feel like crap during the game.
