The training session is made possible by Forever 9-The Robbie Levine Foundation. This hands-on training session is open to the public.

The program is hosted by Long Beach Tennis Center (www.longbeachtenniscenter.com).

All proceeds will be given to Forever 9 to support its efforts at donating AEDs to youth sports programs. The Robbie Levine Foundation (www.robbielevinefoundation.org) works to increase awareness of the need for and importance of Automated External Defibrillators (AEDs) in saving lives, particularly in youth athletics, and to advance Robbie's love of sports and giving nature by supporting youth sports programs.
