Spring sports are a fantastic way for your kids to exercise and have fun! But, don’t forget to discuss proper hydration and concussions awareness with your little athlete!

- Increased thirst.
- Dry mouth.
- Tired or sleepy.
- Decreased urine output.
- Urine is low volume and more yellowish than normal.
- Headache.
