Beat the Heat Safely This Season | Jefferson City News
Description
High school football’s back, and with scorching summer temps, safety is the real game. Coaches and doctors are sounding the alarm: hydration before, during, and after practice is non-negotiable. Check your urine—lighter than apple juice means you’re on track. Don’t just sip water; swap in sports drinks and salty snacks to replace lost electrolytes. Recovery matters too—cool down, refuel, and listen to your body. Ignoring dizziness or cramps can turn a minor issue into a medical emergency. Athletes must speak up, coaches must act fast, and parents must support with hydration, snacks, and post-practice care. Heat illness doesn’t discriminate—it hits anyone. Play smart, stay safe, and remember: in sports, knowledge and caution win every time.
