In the first link, you will find an article by Hockey Alberta that highlights what to eat and drink on game days, some tips to overcome nutritional challenges, and the importance of hydration for an athlete. At the bottom of the article, there are also tips for eating while travelling, and how to use food for team fundraisers! In the second link, you will find three PDF files by USA Hockey showing you what an athlete’s plate should look like for an easy training plan, moderate training plan, and a hard training plan.
