Castle United getting some fuel on board.

While a lot has been made in recent months about our supply of smoothies to Munster Rugby as part of their nutrutional programme, we are also sponsoring the fledgling soccer club Castle United from Bulgaden, Co. Limerick. This is a great example of a community based initiative born out of tragedy, when a child from the parish lost his life at only 11 years. The community came together to provide an outlet and support network for his friends during the winter months.  The club is open to girls and boys and is the only sports club I know where art classes are provided to those children who aren't so sporty but want to be involved.

Nutrition is as important to these athletes as it is to David Wallace, Ian Dowling or any of the professionals, maybe more so as habits formed early on are easier maintained.  It becomes a virtuous cycle where proper foods provide energy for activities and the activities themselves create demands from the body for the proper foods for provision of natural carbohydrate, water, vitamins and antioxidants.

Continued success to all involved in Castle United and all other community sports clubs.
