Times are changing. Nowadays, the food offered at local sporting clubs is moving in a positive direction and the benefits of healthy eating are obvious.
You'll still be able to find a bag of mixed lollies for $1 but there are now more healthier choices available on menu boards at canteens that are proving to enhance sport performance and motivation.
