Healthy Sport Environment

Vending machines

Often sporting organisations without a canteen have a vending machine. There are small changes that you can make to the contents and layout of your vending machine to provide a greater choice of nutritious food and drinks. Use the following links to assess your vending machine and to reduce the consumption of sugary drinks.

Rethink sugary drink

Other things to consider

Even if you are not operating a canteen, there are often occasions when food and drink may be supplied in a less formal environment. These may include:

  • An esky/container on the sidelines
  • Food stops during travel to and from events

Think about how to include healthy foods from the Green category for these situations and bring healthy snacks when travelling instead of stopping for fast food.
