Asthma Management in Sport

As a coach, learning about asthma serves an important purpose: you are making sports safer for more people to participate in and directly promoting inclusivity for those affected by asthma. Additionally, when you are confident in your abilities to identify and respond to an asthma attack, participants and their parents/guardians feel more comfortable taking part in community sports. This eLearning module will take approximately 40-50 minutes to complete.

When you have finished this module, you will be able to:

• Identify common symptoms and triggers relating to asthma attacks as per the Canadian Thoracic Society guidelines 
• Describe the steps for how to treat an asthma attack 
• Implement a plan of action for managing an athlete's asthma that includes coordinating with parents/guardians
