With summer sports in full swing, youth athletes are spending more time in the heat – and losing more fluids than ever. Dehydration can impact performance, mood, and even safety. That’s why it’s critical to fuel young athletes with the hydration they need before, during, and after practice.

Top tips for keeping your athlete hydrated:

  • Hydrate Before Practice: Encourage water or Launch Hydrate 30–60 minutes before activity.
  • Bring More Than Just Water: Electrolyte beverages help replace what’s lost in sweat – especially sodium and potassium.
  • Pack Extra: Kids are more likely to stay hydrated when it’s easy and accessible. Pack stick packs or extra bottles in their sports bag.
  • Watch for Signs of Dehydration: Fatigue, headaches, muscle cramps, and dark urine are all signs your child may be underhydrated.

Don’t wait until they’re wiped out – hydration is part of preparation, performance, and recovery.

Launch Hydrate is built for youth athletes who want to stay energized, sharp, and ready to win the moment – no matter the temperature outside.

Stay Hydrated. Stay Informed.
