Rye Tennis Club has successfully revitalised their canteen with support the Health Promotion team at Peninsula Health to buy a NutriBullet to introduce popular fresh smoothies and nourishing food options and help them to work through the Vic Kids Eat Well program. They also upgraded their drink offerings which have been well received by club members.
Rye Tennis Club is having great success in their canteen after receiving support from the Health promotion team for the Vic Kids Eat Well program. With this assistance, the club purchased a NutriBullet, leading to a surge in smoothie sales!! On competition days, they introduced a variety of fresh smoothie options, which sold out so quickly that they had to restock with more fruit!
In addition to smoothies, Rye Tennis Club offers a range of healthy meals and snacks at their canteen, including fresh fruit, salads, homemade pastas, veggie slices, salad rolls, and wraps. The club also recently ‘refreshed their fridge’, replacing sugary drinks with nourishing options like bottled water, flavoured mineral water, and no-sugar sports drinks.
Heather, the club manager, mentioned, “The new menu and drink options have been well received by club members and are proving really popular on competition and tournament days.”
We look forward to continuing our partnership with Rye Tennis Club and hearing more about the successes of their canteen.
