CPR & First Aid in Youth Sports Training

The American Heart Association wants youth sports coaches, parents, and athletes to know how to help in an emergency – both on and off the field. This course is designed for youth coaches to ensure they and their community know the lifesaving skills of CPR, how to use an AED, and how to help during sports-related emergencies. This is NOT a certification program, this is a training program geared towards youth sports coaches/parents/community members.
