Address: San Juan, Candon City, Ilocos Sur Title: THE LEVEL OF SATISFACTION OF CITY MEET STUDENTATHLETES ON OLYMPIAD OF SAINT JOSEPH’S INSTITUTE, INC. FOR THE SCHOOL YEAR 2023-2024 Author: Abuyen, Yasmin Ariane S., Auingan, Alfred John M., Bongolan, Josh Angelo C., and Escalona, Vanessa Anne C. Subject: Practical Research 2 This study entitled, The Level of Satisfaction of City Meet StudentAthletes on Olympiad of Saint Joseph’s Institute, Incorporated aimed to: 1) determine the satisfaction levels of city meet student-athletes participating in the Candon City Athletic Association (CCAA) Meet, specifically focusing on Training Services, Facilities and Equipment, Participation and Involvement, and Financial Services; 2) determine the sports event with the highest and lowest satisfaction. The study sought to find out the following: the profile of the City Meet student athletes, in terms of their sports involvement during the event. The study included the whole population, the 128 city meet studentathletes from St. Joseph’s Institute, Incorporated who have been involved in the different 14 sports events during the CCAA Meet, specifically: 3 from Archery, 3 from Athletics, 5 from Swimming, 4 from Dance sports, 4 from Billiards, 4 from Chess, 5 from Lawn Tennis, 7 from Badminton, 8 from Table Tennis, 13 from Futsal, 13 from Taekwondo, 16 from Basketball, 17 from Football, and 27 from Volleyball, and aimed to address the following research questions: (1) What is the level of satisfaction of city meet student-athletes on Olympiad in terms of: Training Services; Facilities, Supplies, and Equipment; Participation and Involvement, and Financial Services; and (3) Which sports event has the highest satisfaction and the lowest satisfaction? The researchers used the quantitative approach and survey research design. The statistical tools used in the questions 1-20 included mean frequency count. The findings indicated that Olympiad had a high level of satisfaction within the city-meet student athletes in the various factors presented. Based on the findings, the following conclusions were drawn: Olympiad maintained a high level of satisfaction among city meet studentathletes, majority of the learners have been satisfied with the participation and involvement variable indicating a strong sense of engagement and vi (077)742-6012 sjicandon@gmail.com /SJICCIS ST. JOSEPH’S INSTITUTE, INC. Candon City, Ilocos Sur A Basic Education Institution owned and managed by the Congregation of Sisters of St. Paul of Chartres enthusiasm among student-athletes towards sports activities, receiving the highest satisfaction mean of 3.18. However, financial services variable show room for improvement as indicating lack of support in financial transactions and sports events, receiving a satisfaction mean of 2.72. Also, results have shown that Basketball emerged as the sport with the highest overall satisfaction among student-athletes obtaining a mean of 3.39, indicating a very high level of satisfaction while Dance sports appeared as the sport with the lowest overall satisfaction, received a satisfaction mean of 2.66. This implied that the study’s findings would be a significant to the field of sports in the institution as well as other public schools in Candon City, reaching out within the country and globally to optimize studentathlete satisfaction and emphasize the need of prioritization of the club as part of the extra-curricular activities of the students. Findings of high-level satisfaction of Olympiad supervision to city meet student-athletes suggested that it could enhance their administrative structure on sports club to be a gateway to the development of the overall engagement and development of the student-athletes. vii (077)742-6012 sjicandon@gmail.com /SJICCIS ST.

Candon City, Ilocos Sur A Basic Education Institution owned and managed by the Congregation of Sisters of St. Paul of Chartres Chapter 1 INTRODUCTION Sports are all kinds of physical activities aimed at improving physical fitness, mental health, and social interaction between individuals through organized participation (Sutala, 2018, p. 89). The World Health Organization [WHO] (2019) defined physical activity refers to “all movement including during leisure time, for transport to get to and from places, or as part of a person's work.” Both moderate- and vigorous-intensity physical activity improve health. Sports play a significant role in a man’s whole development (Lacaba & Lacaba, 2020, para. 2). The role of sport in society, particularly in schools, has been proven across research in the past few years (Malm et al., 2019; Westerbeek & Eime, 2021). Background of the Study Domville et al. (2018) presented in their study that children’s engagement in school-based physical activity is largely determined by the competencies of those delivering the activities (p. 935). Domville et. al stated that opportunities delivered by generalist teachers without any PE-specific training or by those with limited interest in sport are likely to detract from the experiences of children (p. 938). Specifically, the (077)742-6012 sjicandon@gmail.com /SJICCIS 3 ST. JOSEPH’S INSTITUTE, INC. Candon City, Ilocos Sur A Basic Education Institution owned and managed by the Congregation of Sisters of St. Paul of Chartres researchers have found that there are problems and issues that needs a clear understanding arising in this topic. Arshaf et al. (2021) stated that many universities have sports facilities and equipment is not well run. These facilities are not managed or maintained properly at all by physical educators or sport administrators. This has significantly hindered and decreased the college's sports programs. Learners do not lack talent; rather, the problem lies in their lack of belief in the necessity of sports (para. 8). Another study from Serra et al. (2016) presented that the HighPerformance Programs (HPP) service quality ranged from moderate to high, indicating that certain aspects needed improvement (p.183). As such, school sports should be educational and contribute to the overall education of student-athletes (Guo & Meyerhoefer, 2016; Milambo & Pacho, 2021; Morris, T. et al., 2018). The Department of Education (DepEd) implemented the Special Program for Sports (SPS) to assist schools in increasing kids' levels of physical activity by offering frequent, superior, and varied sports educational initiatives. The program has a positive impact on kids' participation in physical education in the classroom activity by offering a wider variety of sports opportunities. Schools state that the provision of (077)742-6012 sjicandon@gmail.com /SJICCIS 4 ST. JOSEPH’S INSTITUTE, INC. Candon City, Ilocos Sur A Basic Education Institution owned and managed by the Congregation of Sisters of St. Paul of Chartres these activities is being led by qualified sport coaches, which is raising the caliber and fostering an improved encounter for kids. Agot (2019) asserted that the implementation of Special Program in Sports, it was discovered that there is no discernible variation aside from curriculum design. In addition, instructors perceive the absence of training facilities as the primary obstacle to programs' effective implementation (p. 182). Also, Tabuena (2020) concluded that students believe that the school supports academic activities more than athletic nations. As a result, the school should support and encourage sports through instruction, adequate training time, sports, the quantity of trainers, and the variety and duration of sports actions as well as information sharing (pp. 633-634). Lastly, St. Joseph’s Institute, Inc. (SJI) support their studentathletes through an organization called “Olympiad”, a sports club that provides a platform to students in enhancing and developing their skills in the different sports events. The Olympiad has been a platform for students to join in school-based events (Paulympics), division sports meet (SDOCCAA), and regional sports (R1AA) festivals. Olympiad has been a gateway to create bonds with their fellow students through sports and develop relationship among them. Being part of it has taught them to have leadership skills unlike other experience that exists (Dumalanta, (077)742-6012 sjicandon@gmail.com /SJICCIS 5 ST. JOSEPH’S INSTITUTE, INC. Candon City, Ilocos Sur A Basic Education Institution owned and managed by the Congregation of Sisters of St. Paul of Chartres personal communication). Challenges have surfaced in relation to various sporting events, eliciting discontent among student-athletes about their participation experiences. The educational institution appears to prioritize academic pursuits, relegating sports to a secondary position, thereby limiting opportunities for students to hone their athletic skills (Digay, personal communication). Notably, insufficient time is allocated for training within the campus premises (Abad, personal communication). The quality of trainers and facilitators in certain sporting disciplines needs enhancement (Soriano, personal communication). Furthermore, deficiencies in sports equipment and facilities (Martinez, personal communication), lack of financial support is evident (Calip, personal communication), alongside a perceived lack of backing from the administration itself (Lockey, personal communication). This has led the researchers to determine the level of satisfaction of City Meet Student-Athletes on Olympiad in St. Joseph’s Institute, Inc. for the School Year 2023-2024. This study not only contributed the studentathletes but also to the development of a new understanding regarding the system of handling school-based clubs and organizations. (077)742-6012 sjicandon@gmail.com /SJICCIS 6 ST. JOSEPH’S INSTITUTE, INC. Candon City, Ilocos Sur A Basic Education Institution owned and managed by the Congregation of Sisters of St. Paul of Chartres Framework of the Study This study was anchored on the following theories: Astin’s Involvement Theory and the Kolb’s experiential learning theory. Also, the study used Input-Process-Output (IPO) Method. Student Involvement theory, developed by Alexander W. Astin in 1984, determines the maximum growth and learning to occur the student must be actively engaged on their campus (Duncan, 2016). The amount of commitment and engagement that students have in extracurricular clubs is directly related to how happy they are with them. Students are likely to be happier when they participate in club activities more fully and actively. The experiential learning theory, credited to David Kolb in 1984, draws inspiration from other notable theorists such as Jean Piaget, Kurt Lewin, and John Dewey (Western Governors University, 2020). Kolb places a strong emphasis on the value of engagement and introspection during the educational process. Students may find fulfillment in experiential learning opportunities in school-based clubs, where they can put their knowledge and abilities to use in real-world situations.

Review of Literature The following were the summaries of the professional literature and studies reviewed by the researchers. These literature and studies provided enlightenment and clear insights which guided the researcher in the overall conceptualization of the study. Philippine Sports Festival for Students The Department of Education [DepEd] (2023), specifically the Schools Division of Candon City have conducted the division-based selection of athletes, through the Candon City Athletic Association Meet, to select athletes to represent the division in the Region 1 Athletic Association Meet (R1AA) (DepEd Memo No.005, s. 2023). The goal of the sports festival was to: (1) Encourage school sports and physical education as essential components of the K–12 Basic Education Curriculum and as a sign of the schools' dedication to helping students reach their maximum potential so they can grow into responsible, successful, and competitive people; (2) Use athletic facilities and the neighborhood as an extension of the classroom to help students reach their full potential, improve their attitudes and values, and become better citizens by helping them develop their knowledge and abilities in sports (077)742-6012 sjicandon@gmail.com /SJICCIS 13 ST. JOSEPH’S INSTITUTE, INC. Candon City, Ilocos Sur A Basic Education Institution owned and managed by the Congregation of Sisters of St. Paul of Chartres as well as other areas; (3) Encourage self-control, good sportsmanship, friendship, togetherness, and collaboration among all players.

On the Assessment on School Sports Club In today's education, school sports clubs play a big role in shaping students' overall growth. The researchers explored previous studies and literature to better understand how school sports clubs contribute to the overall educational experience, gathered insights from past research to refine our understanding of the many ways school sports clubs make a difference in education. Batista et al. (2019) evaluated motivation levels of the athletes of both sports with the basic psychological needs and life satisfaction with the study entitled, “Practice motivation and life satisfaction of athletes of team sports: Comparative study between adapted and regular sport”. The study used quantitative method and used questionnaires as instrument for the study. The results showed that basic psychological needs and positive effects were good predictors of life satisfaction in athletes of adapted sport. (077)742-6012 sjicandon@gmail.com /SJICCIS 15 ST. JOSEPH’S INSTITUTE, INC. Candon City, Ilocos Sur A Basic Education Institution owned and managed by the Congregation of Sisters of St. Paul of Chartres Ibarra and Pestaño (2021) developed a study entitled "Assessment on the Implementation of Special Program in Sports and Student-Athletes Performance in Sports Competition" in province of Nueva Ecija that aimed to assess the Special Program in Sports (SPS) implementation in eight high school implementers in the province of Nueva Ecija. This study used quantitative, descriptive - correlation design. The result showed that the establishment of a specific sports program was viewed as having very sufficient resources for student assistance, admission/retention procedures, planned curriculum for sports, labor resources, and teaching materials. On the Athletes' Satisfaction on Sports Club Athletes’ satisfaction in sports clubs really matters for the success of the program. This research paper looked at past studies to find out what makes athletes satisfied in sports clubs. By examining existing studies, we sought to discern patterns, insights, and best practices that contribute to understanding of the dynamics shaping athlete contentment in the realm of sports club participation. The study of Thomas and Ti (2019), entitled “Athlete satisfaction of university level basketball players in Kerala”, assessed the degree of satisfaction of both male and Keralan women who play collegiate basketball. There are 96 basketball players in the sample, both male and (077)742-6012 sjicandon@gmail.com /SJICCIS 16 ST. JOSEPH’S INSTITUTE, INC. Candon City, Ilocos Sur A Basic Education Institution owned and managed by the Congregation of Sisters of St. Paul of Chartres female. Those who play basketball be affiliated with many institutions throughout four universities in the state of Kerala. The university team members that were chosen from the intercollegiate basketball games served as the subjects. The results showed that among the male basketball players the MG University reported as the highest degree of satisfaction followed by those at Kerala and Calicut University. Meanwhile, the University with the highest degree of satisfaction among its female basketball players is MG University while Kannur University's female basketball players scored the lowest. Contreira et al. (2019) studied the “Basic Psychological Needs and Sports Satisfaction Among Brazilian Athletes and Coaches: The Mediating Role of the Dyadic Relationship” in Brazil to analyze the role of coachathlete relationship in the satisfaction of basic psychological needs and sport satisfaction of Brazilian coaches and athletes. Quantitative method, survey research design was used in this study. Results showed that athletes feel engaged and connected to their social environment, they are more likely to present higher levels of satisfaction with their sport, which reveals how interpersonal relationships established in sport practices are intervening factors for athletic satisfaction.

The results show that media advertisements drive the interest of the players into volleyball as volleyball games and successful players have been displayed in the platform. Also, the results determined by them continue volleyball sports is to take pleasure from success, to develop ability, and to have a social environment. Zheng and Ji (2021) in "Analysis of the Intervention Effect and Self-Satisfaction of Sports Dance Exercise on the Psychological Stress of College Students" investigated the impact of sports dance exercise on the psychological stress of college students and their levels of satisfaction. Data was collected through self-report questionnaires and analyzed using descriptive method to identify factors contributing to satisfaction and dissatisfaction among participants. Results have shown that participants often experience dissatisfaction due to stress, pressure, and diminished self-esteem. These negative effects overshadow the benefits and contribute to overall dissatisfaction among participants. Factors such as poor quality of instruction, inadequate practice facilities, negative competition experiences, and a negative social environment exacerbate dissatisfaction.

On the Student-Athletes' Satisfaction on Sports Club A collection of previous studies to figure out what makes studentathletes satisfied in sports clubs, finding patterns, insights, and best practices to further understand what influences how happy studentathletes are when they're part of a sports club. The study of Siegfried (2019) assessed the difference between males and females and their perceptions of satisfaction with their coaches, the equity of athletic-related resources, and the institutions athletic-related facilities, with the study entitled, "Enhancing the Female Student-Athlete Satisfaction at an NCAA Division I Limited-Resource Institution". The study used quantitative analysis and comparative design for student-athletes. There are 734 participants in the study with 330 male and 404 female student-athletes, which provides a comparative group. The study's findings indicated that women are less satisfied than (077)742-6012 sjicandon@gmail.com /SJICCIS 19 ST. JOSEPH’S INSTITUTE, INC. Candon City, Ilocos Sur A Basic Education Institution owned and managed by the Congregation of Sisters of St. Paul of Chartres men with amenities connected to athletics. It offered proof that female student-athlete satisfaction may be adversely affected by perceived unfairness with locker rooms. This implies that basketball male studentathletes have a high level of satisfaction when it comes to the services of the school than the female student-athletes. These results offer more proof that women place a higher value on perceived equality than men do. The research on the satisfaction levels of high school athletes gives us a broad understanding, but there are gaps that need exploring. One key gap is the lack of focus on how satisfied student-athletes are specifically with their sports clubs. While some studies cover areas like disabled athletes or the coach-athlete relationship, they don't delve deeply into this aspect. There's also inconsistent information about how satisfied athletes is with things like training facilities and financial support. Furthermore, certain research methods, like surveys, haven't been used to their full potential, limiting our insights. Additionally, we haven't thoroughly examined the satisfaction levels within each sports club. This research aims to fill these gaps by investigating the overall satisfaction of high school athletes and identifying which sports clubs have the highest and lowest satisfaction rates.

Candon City, Ilocos Sur A Basic Education Institution owned and managed by the Congregation of Sisters of St. Paul of Chartres Chapter 2 METHODOLOGY This chapter presents a discussion of the research design, sources of data, population and locale of the study, research instrument and the analysis and interpretation of data to answer the research problems accurately and comprehensively. Research Design This study employed the quantitative approach and used the survey research design. Survey design is defined as the “means for gathering information about the characteristics, actions, or opinions of a large group of people”. There are three distinguishing characteristics of survey research. First, survey research is used to quantitatively describe specific aspects of a given population (target population and survey population). Second, the data required for survey research are collected from people and are, therefore, subjective. Lastly, survey research uses a selected portion of the population from which the findings can later be generalized back to the population. (Dangal, 2021) Quantitative research is referred to as the process of collecting and analyzing numerical data. The methodology helped find patterns, themes, and cause-effect relationships between the variables being studied (Voxco, 2021). The researchers selected the quantitative research (077)742-6012 sjicandon@gmail.com /SJICCIS 21 ST. JOSEPH’S INSTITUTE, INC. Candon City, Ilocos Sur A Basic Education Institution owned and managed by the Congregation of Sisters of St. Paul of Chartres as the method as it is the ideal process of obtaining accurate and reliable data. The researchers identified and explained the level of satisfaction of the Olympiad to the high school student-athletes. Thus, the researcher found that this design as the most appropriate for the study. Population and Locale of the Study The respondent of this study was composed of 128 SJIan studentathletes of St. Joseph's Institute Inc. for the school year 2023 - 2024. The sample of the study was the whole population with a retrieval rate of 100% (128/128). They were chosen because they have joined the Candon City Athletic Association (CCAA) Meet as one of the sports festivities divisionbased activities. The respondents have joined in the different 17 sports events included in the CCAA Meet on January 12 to 14, 2024.

JOSEPH’S INSTITUTE, INC. Candon City, Ilocos Sur A Basic Education Institution owned and managed by the Congregation of Sisters of St. Paul of Chartres Research Instrument The researchers have utilized the 4-point Likert scale proposed by Rensis Likert (1932) to assess the students’ satisfaction and agreement with the school sports club. The researchers adapted and slightly revised the content of the questionnaire of Athlete Satisfaction Questionnaire (ASQ), Basic Needs Satisfaction Sport Scale (BNSSS), Questionnaire for the evaluation of sports services (EPOD2), and Sports Club Participation Motivation Scale. The ASQ of P. Chelladurai and H. A. Riemer's (1997) classifies facets of athlete satisfaction, consisting of 56-items utilized to assess psychological dimensions of athlete satisfaction with their experiences. BNSSS was proposed by K. Hodge et al. (2011), aims to develop a measure of basic needs satisfaction in sport in terms of autonomy, competence, and relatedness. EPOD2 aims to identify the level of students’ satisfaction with the school sports club services. (Alvarez et al., 2013) Lastly, the Sports Club Participation Motivation Scale proposed by M. R. Blais et al. (1995), seeks to assess the motivational processes within sport environments. (077)742-6012 sjicandon@gmail.com /SJICCIS 23 ST. JOSEPH’S INSTITUTE, INC. Candon City, Ilocos Sur A Basic Education Institution owned and managed by the Congregation of Sisters of St. Paul of Chartres Data Gathering Procedure The researchers constructed a 20-item survey-questionnaire, adapting and slightly revising the content of Athlete Satisfaction Questionnaire (ASQ), Basic Needs Satisfaction Sport Scale (BNSSS), Evaluation of sports services (EPOD2), Sports Club Participation Motivation Scale. The researchers have utilized the 4-point Likert scale. Then, the research statistician, the research adviser, and subject teacher in Practical Research 2 have checked the survey-questionnaire and was validated by a respective teacher through a formal letter and a copy of the survey-questionnaire. Upon approval of the request to the school principal, the researchers began to conduct the study. The researchers conducted their instrument to 128 student athletes in the different 14 sports event.

Furthermore, the researchers sought to answer the study through the analysis of the data using the descriptive analysis. The researchers interpreted the data based on the past studies they have found. Data Analysis and Treatment of Data The researchers have utilized the descriptive analysis technique specifically the measure of central tendency or the mean as the statistical method in the evaluation of data. Descriptive analysis technique aimed to identify and describe trends and variation in populations, create new measures of key phenomena, or describe samples in studies aimed at identifying causal effects (Dynarski et al., 2017). Measures of central tendency are summary statistics that represent the center point or typical value of a dataset. The mean is the arithmetic average in the descriptive analysis. (Frost, 2024) Also, the researchers have utilized the data categorization for the obtained overall weighted mean. (077)742-6012 sjicandon@gmail.com /SJICCIS 25 ST. JOSEPH’S INSTITUTE, INC.

The results of Basketball with the highest satisfaction were supported by Thomas and Ti (2019), indicating a high degree of satisfaction from the basketball players who play collegiate sports in terms of individual performance, coaches’ behaviors and treatment of the athlete, training and instruction, team task and social contributions, personal dedication, ability utilization, and team integration. Also, the results were agreed by Siegfried (2019), stating that male basketball athletes have greater satisfaction when it comes to their facilities, supplies, and equipment rendered by the institution. The results of Dance sports with the lowest satisfaction were supported by Zheng & Ji (2021) stating that dance sports athletes have shortcomings that impact their experience and retention in spots, leading to the overall dissatisfaction among participants. Meanwhile, the satisfaction has deemed as satisfied and was supported by Wang & Wang (2022), stating that satisfaction acts as a mediator between enjoyment factors and continued engagement in dance sport activities. This implies that individuals who are highly satisfied with their experiences are more likely to continue participating in dance activities, even if they encounter challenges or setbacks. (077)742-6012 sjicandon@gmail.com /SJICCIS 32 ST. JOSEPH’S INSTITUTE, INC. Candon City, Ilocos Sur A Basic Education Institution owned and managed by the Congregation of Sisters of St. Paul of Chartres CONCLUSION The researchers have concluded the following insights on the study: 1. The students-athletes have participated in 17 sports events in the division athletic meet. This signifies that the school provided opportunities for the student-athletes to enhance their skills and to obtain hand-on experiences other than being trained inside the institution. 2. The study results indicated a generally positive satisfaction level with the Olympiad, particularly in Participation and Involvement, indicating a strong sense of engagement and enthusiasm among student-athletes towards sports activities. While Financial Services exhibit room for improvement with certain aspects receiving lower satisfaction ratings, indicating deficiencies in transparency and support in financial transactions and sports events. 3. Basketball emerges as the sport with the highest overall satisfaction among student-athletes obtaining a mean of 3.39, highlighting the great number of services rendered for their development. Meanwhile, Dance sports appeared to be the sports with the lowest satisfaction mean of 2.66, signifying poor quality of instruction, inadequate practice facilities, and lack of support from peers. (077)742-6012 sjicandon@gmail.com /SJICCIS 33 ST. JOSEPH’S INSTITUTE, INC. Candon City, Ilocos Sur A Basic Education Institution owned and managed by the Congregation of Sisters of St. Paul of Chartres RECOMMENDATIONS The results of the study have been significantly positive when it comes to the various services of the sports club, but it is suggested that the school/institution should: 1. expand sport events’ options for all, create an inclusive environment in terms of sports events, enhance the administrative structure when it comes to the sports club being implemented; 2. provide proper schedule of training: elect or inquire professional trainers with a deep background of the sport; enhance current sports facilities; render financial assistance to student-athletes; and allocate funds for the facilities and equipment of the other sports event; and 3. implement the Special Program for Sports (SPS); evaluate the satisfaction of the students and construct a comprehensive framework on sports activities; prioritize sports that lacks satisfaction to provide the needs of the students for their development in their extra-curricular activities.
