> Sport events - from regular practices to games, tournaments and
> competitions - are in a position to promote physical, social and
> community health through sport. They can also promote healthier food
> choices for athletes, volunteers and spectators. The new
> Guidelines for
> Food and Beverages Available at Sporting Events in BC provide
> communitysport groups and food service operators with ideas they
> can use to
> provide healthy snacks, drinks and meal options at their sporting
> venues. The guidelines were developed by SportMedBC in
> partnership with
> the Ministry of Healthy Living and Sport and key sport organizations
> across the province, and they reflect B.C.'s commitment to healthy
> eating for athletes of all ages, their families and their
> fans. Please
> read the guidelines and help make every choice a healthy
> choice. For
