Coach's Guide to Nutrition: Fuel with School Lunch

School lunches can provide a number of healthy options for student-athletes and students in after-school clubs and activities. Fueling your brain is just as important as fueling your body. By eating lunch at school every day and including milk, protein, carbs, and color, you are setting yourself up for success on the field and in the classroom.    

Milk Means More logoSchool meals are a great option for student-athletes because they are planned with growing bodies in mind. Your athletes might need a second meal or additional snacks, though, if they are still hungry or are not meeting their calorie needs.

COACHES: Contact your school's food service department to learn how they can support your team’s nutrition goals.

School lunches are made with student nutrition in mind!
