Sport Management Program in the Division of Samar
Keywords:
Sports, Management, ProgramAbstract
The study presented the status and extent of implementation of the Sports Management Program in the Division of Samar during the school year 2015-2017. This study used the descriptive research design that assessed the status of implementation of the sports management program of DepEd Samar Division. In the provincial level, 129 gold medals were received by the ninety six athlete-respondents. In the EVRAA Meet, there were only three bronze medals received by the athletes and none for gold and silver medals. In addition, during the Palarong Pambansa, only one bronze medal was received by the athlete and none received a gold and silver medal. The data implies a need to revisit the sport program since few athletes received medals in the higher level of competition. Among the highest awards received, out of 96 athletes, there are 71 gold medals received followed by 15 silver medals or 15.63 percent and 10 bronze medals or 10.42 percent. The athlete-respondents belong to a normal physical fitness category and are physically active and have a greater chance to perform better in athletic competitions. Ball sports are usually the type of sports played by athletes where the majority of the awards were received. Hiring a competent sports division coordinator/sports manager and attendance to comprehensive sports management training of the assigned sports coordinators in every school or district is urgent and highly recommended.
