Perfect Basketball Snacks for Basketball Camps

Posted by johnpreston on May 10th, 2015

Parents are going to be sending their kids to summer sport camps again really soon and one of the most challenging considerations is on what kind of snacks to prepare.

Sports camps are not like your ordinary days in school where a sandwich, an apple and packed juice are enough. Well, it’s not really a question on whether they are enough or too much but, on them being the right kind of food to prepare for your kids.

These are some of the things that every parent has to consider when preparing for their kids’ snack for sport camps

1. Fast and Easy to Consume

Most sport camps don’t really have a formal lunch break or recess. In the case of a basketball clinic, they only break play when they have to huddle. Now, these short huddles may not be enough to consume an apple.
 
Your kid needs something that can easily be consumed within two to three minutes because that’s all he has before he goes back into the court.

2. Energy Food

His sports snack should be able to give him enough energy to last until the next water break.
 
The perfect basketball snack should have a lot of simple sugars for energy. It should not be filling because that will cause problems when he has to play immediately after eating.

3. Share

Team sports are all about team-manship and part of that is sharing your food. If it’s a basketball snack then it might as well be really a snack that is in the form of chips that he can simply open up and pass around.

It has to be nutritious as well as delicious.
