COACHES TRAINING: What Coaches Need to Know

Starting April 26th, 2013, individuals are not allowed to serve as a coach or referee for a youth sports organization, whether volunteer or paid, without:

1) successfully completing, every three years, an online training program in recognizing the signs and symptoms of concussions and head injuries provided by the Ohio Department of Health

OR

2) holding a Pupil Activity Permit (PAP) from the Ohio Department of Education.

**ALL LYBO Coaches must submit a Certificate of Completion or PAP certificate of completion, valid past 3 years**

PLEASE COMPLETE AND EMAIL TO:
There are three training courses that offer a certificate of completion upon successful passage:
  1. The NFHS course allows individuals and organizations to search for and track coaches who have completed the course. 
  2. The NAYS course - chapters can track coaches who have completed the course and are members of the NYSCA.  To find your own certificate of completion, log in to your free account again, click on the “Go to clinic” link for Concussion Training and select the “Access Your Certificate” link.
  3. The CDC course, which does not currently track or keep any personal information.  In order to print your certificate of completion, use the print button found within the training.  No records are kept by the CDC so you will not be able to return later to search for your certificate and if you stop before completion you must start over on your next visit to the site.
