Atlanta Select Coaches Trained in CPR and First Aid - Mandatory

Atlanta Select coaches for the 2012 season will be First Aid and CPR certified. There is no more important "Life Skills" then to know the steps to provide first aid or CPR if needed in an emergency situation. Thus, all Atlanta Select coaches, head coaches and assistants, will be required to take the necessary training and obtain the required certification.
Go Select!
