Abstract: In accordance with one aspect, there is provided a sports hydration apparatus configured for utilisation with a particular type of existing fluid reservoir bladder.

Abstract: There is provided a sports hydration apparatus comprising: electric componentry housing; an annulus rotatably coupled to the housing, the annulus defining peripheral exterior threading for engaging a threaded opening of a bladder such that the annulus can rotate relative to the housing to screwably engage the threaded opening and wherein the housing and annulus cooperate to seal the threaded opening when the annulus is screwed in; hydration hosing transitioning through the housing in a fluidtight manner, the hosing comprising an interior inlet hose portion which reaches within the bladder for drawing fluid and an exterior outlet hose; a mouthpiece and wherein the outlet hose reaches the mouthpiece; an electric pump coupled to the hydration hosing to pump fluid through the hosing; wherein the housing houses electric componentry comprising: a wireless receiver coupled to the pump and configured for receiving wireless instructions from a dispensing controller device to operate the pump.
