Hi Jassy,

When you are working so hard it is important to have a good diet in general.

Before you play you should fuel up with things like plenty of water, and a good carbohydrate food.

Things like Gatorade are OK during training but not in large quantities.  Water is good in most cases.

The most important is to follow a good balanced diet. The night before training eat plenty of high carbohydrate food such as pastas.  Some of the milk based energy food are also good before training.

This is the second training plan focusing on match strategy. Last week we looked at your strengths and building a game around that. This week you should examine one of your competitors and pick out their weaknesses. Then you can design some training drills to expose those weaknesses. By doing this you'll be able to exploit them in a match situation and win points more easily.
