This conjecture addresses the feasibility of rehydrating while on the soccer field. Based on initial survey results, the availability of fluids does not appear to be a major contributing factor of pregame dehydration. It is possible that a portion is due to lack of time. During play, either in a game or warm ups, there might not be an opportunity to run to the sideline to rehydrate. This will require further ethnographic observations. However, if valid, there may be opportunity during the development process, regarding ways to bring fluid onto the field during performance.
