It is never any fun working during the monsoon season here in Tucson. While Phoenix does have higher temps they are also usually a little drier. I drink the yogurt drinks, eat bananas and stay hydrated with Gatorade and lots of water. During the HS season it is rarely a problem but during the summer ball and club ball and then devoting some time to LL, yes LL, it is very important to your health to know how to stay properly hydrated.
I have State Championships for LL junior division next week here in Tucson and I am ready for the temps and humidity. Proper attire is Under Armour, Nike or some other type of moisture wicking under garment...very important for comfort.
Stay cool and healthy.
