This story below is of my footballing this year.
Quite long, so if you just want to give some advice with eating habits, skip to the bottom.

So I just started to get serious with my sporting (A.F.L). I travelled to W.A to play against a team called Kingsley (It's an event that happens every year between a team from our league and the team Kingsley from theirs) It was an under 16's (u16's) team, I played with other members from different teams within the same district over there, anyway.

On the trip I was poached (not really, I just got asked to play) and the club I was currently playing at is a sh*t hole. So I moved to this club, the training here is actually worth while showing up to + it's just a well orientated team.

So we have this thing called inter league. It's like a football carnival, each team that enters represents a team from a different league of football (my team was Traralgon district and there were; Mid Gippsland, Sale, Warragul and Bairnsdale) we played 4 games over 2 days. Anyway, this year was my first year that I made inter league. I played mid field (pretty self explanatory... I assume s and the Gippsland Power scout was circling down the names for those that Gippsland might decide they want for a team. (Gippsland Power is practically the thing you get noticed from to go play actual A.F.L)

While at inter league, we were told that there would be this "all stars" game. Which is where, 9 players from each team can be chosen by their coach to play in this game. This game is a "curtain opener" for the Gippsland Power game, but it's also another chance to get noticed by the coaches for Gippsland Power. So, inter league started Tuesday and Finished Wednesday. On Wednesday night I received a call from my coach telling me I'd be playing in the All Stars game. (Quite excited)

So this year would have to be the biggest year of my footballing career.

Trip to W.A > New club > Inter league > All stars > Possibly Gippsland Power
Anyway, this is the part where I request advice.
I feel as if my training and fitness is all going well, but I overeat :\
I eat so much every day, on a normal daily basis I eat; 2 bowls of cereal, a pack of chips or crackers, 2 sandwiches, 2 pieces of fruit, cookies (or another small snack) and dinner (normally salad with a different serving of meat every night) I drink plenty of fluids (water) and possibly more food. Sometimes even 3 bowls of cereal a day.
I consider myself to be reasonably fit. But I could lose 1-3 kg or so.
Any advice on how to reduce my eating habits?
 
No one else is gonna reply because no one else follows footy and has no idea what the fuck your talking about lol, I used to take my footy serious as fuck and was almost one of those 12 players in the mini draft that went to goldcoast, so I used to play with matt shaw and stuff from there.

I went to school with tom scully and was good mates with him at one stage, I also went to school with matt buntine and he was pick 5 in the draft last year.. no idea how.

Anyway whats your duel position, weight and height?

Also if your playing at that level, usually interleague when you get to U15's they usually give you a diet plan to follow.
 
Weeew. Someone that follows football (A.F.L football, haha)

Currently 170cm/59-61kg (in between there)

Yeah, the interleague team I was apart of was an U14's team and the representative team (Gippsland Power) gives out a training routine/program with a diet to stick to. But this is for 16yo's and me being 14 didn't think I should stick to it just yet, considering that program also had some intense training.

Just wondering if the amount that I eat on a daily basis is a bit too much.
 
lol thought you were talking about american football not soccer facepalm
 

Ah your only 14, thats when your the most hungriest to reach success, by the time you get to 16 you will get over all the bullshit try out and pushing for spots, there are so many people that miss out on getting drafted for that reason, me being almost 20 I played with people that easily would have made afl if they stayed dedicated.

So the diet program is up to you, you may aswell give it a go and see if you like it.
 
Let me just clear one thing up. Its not soccer it's football. The game you call football should be called hand egg since you do not travel with your feet or a ball.

What the f*ck are you talking about?
 
Well,all i can say is eat foods that contain a lot of protein, meats etc.
Since its a lot of physical activities (non-sexual), the protein can give you a good build and loads of strength!

@Predator, if you're 14, fit, and you're physically active (which I'm guessing you are) your eating habits are fine.
Don't stress son.
 
Sorry i can tell you about League but not A.F.L i don't follow it sorry and have nothing to do with it
 
If you play football, it's a must to get bigger if you plan on playing college ball or for a scholarship. Also, my teacher showed me a documentary once, and one boy died because he played football. His body could not withstand the serve heat and he went into a coma.
 

Woah, that's pretty intense, but thanks for advice also !
R.I.P to him
That's really unfortunate.
 

Pretty sure he's talking about american football, which is why he mentioned college ball
