I agree, However, quick note about T3; We tried to get an independant catering service in to provide more healthy options of sustainance. But due to the site already holding a catering licence this was not possible, which the university told me a week before the event, whilst at the same time telling me it was too late to buy in lot of other food to offer as it was out of term time (and if it wasnt sold it would go to waste).
The best alternative I could offer in time was the map to the nearby Asda. I do recognise this a fault with the tournament and one of the parts to try and improve on for the next time, along with others which will be put in a report* and sent to Stig / Chris soon (-ish) * the report is part of my continuing attempts to have this years T3 guided by the initial Minimum Standards sent to me previously Thanks, Alex T3 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: Cahill,Maria Subject: [BD] Nutrition at tournaments - some thoughts Date: Thu, 10 Jul 2003 07:52:04 -0700 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Folks, below a message I recently sent to Stig regarding the addition of a 'food options' category to his minimum tournament requirements. He has agreed to add it but I thought I might spark a debate because I'm not sure it's something ultimate players give enough thought to. I would like to stress that I am not having a go at Soton or Daventry TDs as I believe up till now ultimate players have accepted fried food as quite often being the only option at tournaments and so the TDs could not have been expected to provide anything different. I am not saying that fried stuff should no longer be sold... only that more healthy stuff ought also to be on offer. Mixed Tour 3 in Bakewell was a pretty good example of how to cater for everyone. There were Si Weeks' by now world renowned 'Build your own sandwiches', muesli bars, isotonic drinks, dried fruit and nuts, as well as choc bars, crisps, biscuits etc. Apologies in advance to all slimfast members... Comments please....
