Drip Drop sponsors SACS Rugby

We are very pleased to have gained a sponsorship from Drip Drop Elite Hydration for our 1stXV. Our team will reap the benefits and advantages of this medical-grade hydration solution just like the Canadian national rugby team, the NBA’s Miami Heat and many other professional teams and individual athletes.

Unlike sugary sports drinks which are sugar heavy but electrolyte weak, Drip Drop is designed to enable the body to absorb fluids and electrolytes more efficiently thereby aiding mental and physical fatigue, muscle cramps and increased core temperatures caused by dehydration. Importantly, many sports drinks or juices contain too much sugar and can actually be dehydrating. And drinking too much plain water can cause a condition called hyponatremia (low amounts of sodium in the blood), meaning that the body is overly hydrated. This is why it is important to drink a solution with the proper ratio of fluid and electrolytes. Proper hydration and electrolyte balance allows athletes to train longer and harder, perform measurable better and be the difference between winning and losing.

Drip Drop will be available at the School Shop as from the 15 March.
