Presenting the WINForum Sports Nutrition Game Plan
The 3rd annual Fall WINForum clinic was held on October 28th, 2009 at the University of Washington’s Conibear Shell House. About 40 high school coaches and athletic trainers attended the session where Dr. Brian Krabak, UW Sports Medicine and Rehabilitation, and Emily Edison, M.S., R.D., UW Sports Dietitian, introduced the WINForum Sports Nutrition Game Plan. The game plan features 11 comprehensive handouts developed by sports nutrition and medical experts to educate high school coaches, athletic trainers, student athletes and their parents on a variety of topics that reflect the significance of proper sports nutrition and its proven effect on achieving peak performance.
