SJR 81 Alabama Senate · 2026 Regular Session

CoachSafely Foundation; commended and continued collaboration with Alabama Department of Public Health encouraged

This bill commends the CoachSafely Foundation and the Alabama Department of Public Health for their work on youth sports safety and encourages their continued collaboration. It recognizes the foundation's role in developing training courses for coaches of athletes aged 14 and under who use state, county, or city property, and asks the foundation to regularly review its content and maintain a database of course completions. The resolution also encourages the Department of Public Health to ensure all approved courses meet standards set by nationally recognized organizations like the National Council of Youth Sports. This is a non-binding resolution that expresses appreciation and encourages future cooperation rather than creating new laws or penalties.
