"I believe I have all the required trainings for this position, but there is a summer lacrosse coaching seminar coming up that I am hoping to attend to bring new drills back to the team."
All coaching positions required generally require First Aid and CPR, so if you don't have that will be a training that you'll need prior to coaching. This certification expires every two years, so it important to keep it up to date- sometimes schools will train you to get this done.
Look into the requirements that the school has for coaching and if there is something you need knowledge that during the interview- this will show the interviewer you are educated with their requirements and are also on top of your trainings. Also, if there is any future training that you would like to attend this would be a great time to mention it.
"I notice CPR and First Aid are a required, I currently am certified, but half way through the season I will need to re-certify. Re-certifying isn't an issue, but I wanted you to be aware."

I notice CPR and First Aid are required. Although I am currently certified, halfway through the season I will need to recertify. Recertifying isn't an issue, but I wanted you to be aware.

Great! The interviewer should appreciate that you are on top of your certifications and the timing around your re-certification.
