So this is a training program for athletic coaches. Some of the accredited programs under this umbrella are places like Smith College and Central Florida University. Clearly, if you took courses there you would have a transcript. On the other hand, if you took courses with USA Football or USA Track & Field, I could see where you'd figure that that there might not be a transcript. However, if you were applying for a coaching job and needed to prove that you had this training. Does the group you worked through have an address or phone you can try? You might start here:
 
If it isn't considered an academic program and it does not appear on another transcript as transfer credit, just list it in the work& activities section and call it a day.
 
This is sounding more and more like academic work for which you earned a certificate. Where I'm from, a certificate is 75 hours of instruction. It does not sound like continuing education credit which is an hour here and there to maintain credentialing.

Better to slow down your application by a couple weeks than to sign off on an application that is found to be incorrect. If someone who knows of these type of programs sees that you didn't list it within your coursework section of the application, it could hurt you.

Were the courses pass/fail or do you expect to take a GPA hit if the courses are included?
 
OK, go ahead and list it as an activity but not as academic coursework. Good luck. Let us know how things turn out so we can better advise people in the future.
