Well tonight I start my first summer tournament where I will be a Primary Ump for the Tournament. Out of 8 games I will be calling a minimum of 5. I will also be picking up a HS Summer game early Sat morning.

I have made some posts and read alot of posts on hydration and what not but I am just trying to see if there are other things in which I need to do to prepare myself.

Starting this afternoon I will be drinking alot of water, I am also curious what will be good things to maybe eat as to avoid cramping. It will be mid to high 90's both days of the weekend and about 95% humidity ( Thank You Panama City, Florida ), I will be calling 10am, 1pm, and 3:30pm both Sat and Sun, I am just trying to avoid any problems that I may encounter, me being a quite large guy heats can affect me quite negetively.

I would also appreciate some things that can be done that can help conserve energy as too make it where I stay focused and in control at all times. I am not looking for shortcuts during games just trying to find someways maybe in between innings and games that will help me to rejuvenate quicker.

I appreciate all responses that may come of this, again just asking some questions.
