Episode notes

Do you have a child or teen playing sport in your household? Then this series is for you!  We know that families are busy, that the school year is racing by, and it's hard to find time to source the experts. So we've brought together some of Australia's brightest minds to talk about the issues that impact sport loving families, and give you some easy tips to help everyone stay playing.

Our first guest is Accredited Practising Dietitian, Advanced Sports Dietitian and founder of The Fuel School, Ali Miles. Ali works with every type of athlete - from the elite winter Olympians (like Scotty James) and Paralympians, to elite netball teams (hello Sunshine Coast Lightening) to teens who play lots of sports to kids just trying to eat a better lunchbox. This is not just a conversation for teens on performance pathways - if you have a teen or child who has a lunchbox or fights with you about breakfast (surely it's not just us?), you need to tune in. 

PS Sporties - if you'd like to learn the Active Industries First Start Traineeship Program ($20k to bring on a staff member for your club? Yes please!) head to Active Queenslanders Industry Alliance.
