Year: 2025
Type: article
Study design: Observational Study
Abstract: This paper assessed the extent of implementation of sports programs in selected divisions of the National Capital Region (NCR), utilizing the Philippine Sports Commission’s Strategic Plan during the school year 2024-2025. One hundred fourteen coaches served as respondents and were purposively sampled from three divisions: Division A, Division B, and Division C. The study employed a descriptive-comparative design using a structured questionnaire anchored on sports governance, sports promotion and awareness, sports accessibility, high-performance sports development, sports infrastructure and support, and sport linkages. Findings revealed that the extent of implementation, all sports programs across all divisions were generally “implemented” with sports governance (x̄=3.05) ranked highest, while sports infrastructure and support (x̄=2.67) were the least implemented. The extent of implementation revealed no significant differences in assessment when respondents were grouped according to division, age, and sports affiliation. The study concludes that the sports program in the National Capital Region is aligned with the Philippine Sports Commission’s strategic plan. However, gaps remain in the system's monitoring and evaluation, consistent public campaigns, accessibility, maintenance, and upgrading of sports facilities, a well-defined training program, and collaboration with research institutions.
