Requirements for managing school sports facilities in Shaqlawa District from the perspective of teaching staff

Abstract

The study aimed to identify the management requirements of school sports facilities in a number of schools in Shaqlawa District from the perspective of their sports teaching staff. A descriptive approach and a survey method were used, given its suitability to the nature of the current study. The study sample included (60) male and female physical education teachers working in a number of schools in Shaqlawa District. The researchers recruited (10) administrators to conduct a pilot study. To achieve the study objectives, a questionnaire was designed using scientific procedures. Data were statistically processed using SPSS, which included the arithmetic mean, standard deviation, percentage, Pearson's correlation coefficient, and Cronbach's alpha. The researchers reached several conclusions, the most important of which was that most of the questionnaire's dimensions (organizational procedures, facility planning, facility location, and maintenance) achieved average percentages, with below-average percentages indicating that school sports facilities in Shaqlawa District are being managed in a manner that does not meet the aspirations to achieve the objectives of the physical education lesson.
