Sports Safety Training

An injured athlete is every coach’s fear. But sports related injuries can and do occur. Now there is a course to help you prevent, prepare for, and respond to sports-related emergencies - Sports Safety Training.

The American Red Cross and the United States Olympic Committee have joined forces to develop this exciting course. For High School coaches, this course is approved by the Ohio Department of Education to meet the training requirements of coaches and other pupil activity personnel.

We offer Sports Safety Training three times a year to meet the needs of Fall, Winter, and Spring coaches. This 6 ½ hour course provides coaches with the basic First Aid/CPR/AED skills and knowledge needed to prevent and care for athletic injuries. It is being offered in collaboration with Kolczun & Kolczun Sports Medicine. Successful participants receive certification in Sports Safety and CPR/AED. Cost: $40.00.

All Sports Safety classes are held at the Lorain County Red Cross building at 2929 W. River Rd. N, Elyria, Ohio (Map) unless indicated otherwise.
