Drinking water before, during and after exercise helps keep the body working well. The body loses water when it sweats, so it needs replacing.
Feeling thirsty or tired can be signs you need water.
When you sweat, you lose water and minerals, so you need to replace them. Even mild dehydration can make you tired and reduce your ability to focus and play well.
Take small sips of water regularly during sport rather than gulping a lot at once. Pale yellow urine is a good sign that you are drinking enough. Sports drinks are not usually needed for short activities.
