ABSTRACT

There are many factors affecting the sports performance of student-athletes. Describing the association of these factors with their sports performance may help sports administrators and coaches understand student-athletes' needs which could lead to successful sports performance. The study aimed to identify the significant relationship between the profile and sports performance of student-athletes and the subsequent factors: personal factor, psychological factor, coaching factor, academic factor, administrative factor, and health factor. This descriptive correlation research involved 30 male and 40 female student-athletes who answered a modified questionnaire on Factors Affecting Student-Athletes in their Sports Performance. Descriptive statistics including frequency distribution and percentage were used to describe student-athletes' profiles, sports performance, and factors. Also, Pearson r correlation analysis was computed to test the significant relationship of the profile, factors, and sports performance. Results indicated that student-athletes strongly agree that all the factors affect their sports performance, especially personal factor, coaching factor, and psychological factor. Additionally, student-athletes agree that health factor and academic factor affect their sports performance. Furthermore, results also show that student-athletes' profile was not associated with their performance rank. Meanwhile, all factors except academic factor were significantly related to sports performance. Furthermore, based on the findings, a framework for the successful performance of student-athletes was designed, emphasizing more importance on personal factors and administrative factors while also showing the other factors supporting the athlete's development in terms of training and competition. The model framework could be a viable tool to guide sports administrators and coaches on the successful sports performance of student-athletes.
