Data was obtained from a drinking habits questionnaire.<bold>Results: </bold>overall, 20.8%, 5.5% and 2.7% of subjects did not drink before, during and after exercise on training days, respectively; 17.5% of subjects did not drink before exercise on competition days. Water was the preferred beverage before, during and after exercise on both training and competition days, with fruit juice being the second most consumed beverage before exercise. All subjects also drank fizzy drinks and other beverages during exercise on competition days. According to the recommendations, good hydration habits were found in 54.6%, 74.2% and 76.5% of subjects before, during and after training days, respectively.<bold>Conclusions: </bold>most amateur basketball players drink before, during and after exercise on both training and competition days, but not all of them complied with the hydration recommendations.
