The Diabetes Association of Trinidad and Tobago (DATT) is taking a stand against sugary drinks in sports, using a first-of-its-kind human foosball tournament to raise awareness about the health risks associated with sugar-sweetened beverages.

On Friday, DATT hosted the country’s first-ever Human Foosball Tournament under the theme “Kick Big Soda Out of Sport”.

Its President, Dr Andrew Dhanoo, said the tournament is geared towards raising awareness of the effects of sugary drinks and ultra-processed foods.
