STRATFORD UPON AVON RFC
Resource downloads
Originally intended for Stratford upon Avon RFC when our children were playing in the M&J's I've kept the page, updated as where appropriate as it is still useful, and not just for rugby players (although you may find the advice on cauliflower ears and scrumpox is not relevant unless you play rugby!) .
I've tried to organise the information into categories Please click on the highlighted links or images to download a copy. This page is reviewed regularly and will be added to from time to time.
Diet and Health
We are all much more aware nowadays of the effect of our diet on our health, and in addition it seems that certain foods may help enhance performance, reduce fatique and promote recovery after injury.
