TCSL Tobacco Policy
W&H America is a “youth” focused Club. We desire to model the behavior and habits that make the best possible impression on our athletes. The combination of tobacco products and the enjoyment of team sports is contrary to our goal of providing a safe, healthy and clean atmosphere for our youth. Chewed, Puffed or Inhaled, Tobacco Kills!
To improve the beauty of Florida’s public soccer fields, and to ensure that safe, healthy and clean air environment for everyone, the use of tobacco products, including smokeless products, E cigarettes and vaping, is prohibited on all fields of play for schedule games.
Nutrition Education and Standards
The W&H America will provide nutrition education by distributing educational materials, including healthy snack lists and tips on hydration, to all coaches and parents. W&H America will provide healthy and nutritious snack choices and beverages for purchase at club concession stands.
Physical Activity
W&H America will help facilitate physical activity and help maintain physical fitness for the youth of the Treasure Coast through the sport of soccer.
