Community Game Update October 2019.
England Rugby and Optimum Nutrition have launched a new nutritional education hub ‘Food for Rugby’ to provide expert advice on nutrition for players, coaches and parents within the community game. The hub, is an easily accessible, one-stop shop for rugby specific nutritional information hosted on England Rugby’s website. Players can discover top tips including how to fuel themselves during training, what to eat on a match day, how to control muscle gains and fat loss and all-important recovery. There are recipes designed by leading rugby industry chefs and England’s nutritional team and players can learn how to replicate the meals prepared for the England squad. England players will also share their secret recipes via handy video tutorials.
We highly recommend sharing this handy tool with your clubs and encouraging players to take a look at the page below.
There is also an interesting video for players to watch here.
England Rugby has a ‘food-first’ policy but recognises there are circumstances where the use of selected supplements is appropriate. Guidance for rugby players who may be considering or already using nutritional supplements can be found below.
