Introduction to First Aid in Football Course
The new Introduction to First Aid in Football Course has been designed to provide the latest information and advice on how you can support a trained first aider in the event of someone needing medical attention.
As medical emergencies can happen at any time in football, it is crucial that those in a position of care are able to react quickly and effectively should a situation arise. This course, delivered entirely online, will help you to protect the welfare of others and contribute to a safer game.
Medical guidance is always improving in football, and particularly in light of the Covid-19 pandemic, being able to deliver the appropriate level of care is crucial. The course costs £30 and can be done in your own time, at a pace which suits you.
It should take around 90-120 minutes to complete. Find out more and sign-up today at The Boot Room via this link.

The Safeguarding Children Course forms part of England Football’s ongoing commitment to make the game safe for all.
