KABANATA I
ANG SULIRANIN AT KALIGIRAN NITO

1. Introduksyon
Ang kasaysayan ng isports ay maaaring nagmula pa noong nagsimula ang mga tao na maging aktibo. Ang isports ay naging mahalagang bagay sa mga tao upang madagdagan ang kanilang kasanayan sa kalikasan at kapaligiran. Ang kasaysayan ng isports ay maaaring magturo sa atin ng malaking kaalaman tungkol sa pagbabago sa lipunan at pati na rin sa katangian ng isports. Kinakailangan sa isports na linangin at sanayin ang kani-kanilang kakayanan para na rin sa kanilang kapakanan. Pinapakita rin nito kung paano nagbago ang lipunan sa kanilang paniniwala at dahil dun ay nagkaroon rin ng pagbabago sa mga patakaran o alituntunin.
Masasbi natin na ang isports ay matagal nang nagsimula, mapapatunayan ito sa mga madiskubreng mga pinta sa pader ng Lascaux Cave sa France na nagpapakita ng sinaunang uri ng sprinting at wrestling noong panahon ng matandang bato na mga 17,300 taon na ang nakararaan. Ang mga pinta sa pader ng isang kuweba sa probinsya Bayankhongor sa Mongolia na may edad 7,000 B.C. ay nagpapakita ng sinaunang uri wrestling na napaliligiran ng mga manonood.
Ang kahalagahan ng isports sa kurikulum ng isang paaralan ay nakasaad sa The 1987 Constitution of The Republic of the Philippines-Article XIV SEKSYON 19. (1) Dapat itaguyod ng Estado ang edukasyong pisikal at pasiglahin ang mga programang pang-sports, mga paligsahang panliga, at mga amateur sports, kasama ang pagsasanay para sa mga paligsahang pandaigdig, upang maisulong ang disiplina sa sarili, pagtutulungan ng magkakasama at kahusayan para sa pagbubuo ng kapamayanang malusog at mulat.(2) Ang lahat ng mga institusyong pang-edukasyon at dapat magsasagawa ng regular na mga gawaing pang-sports sa buong bansa at pakikipagtulungan sa mga samahan sa palaro at iba pang mga sektor.
Bukod dito ay may batas ring naipasa na may kaugnayan sa isports sa mga paaralan at ito ang Republic Act. No. 5708 na nagsasaad na: REPUBLIC ACT NO. 5708 - AN ACT PROVIDING FOR THE PROMOTION AND FINANCING OF AN INTEGRATED PHYSICAL EDUCATION AND SPORTS DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM FOR THE SCHOOLS IN THE PHILIPPINES
Section 1. This Act shall be known as "The Schools Physical Education and Sports Development Act of 1969."
Sec. 2. An integrated physical education and sports development program in all schools in the Philippines shall be undertaken by the Department of Education in accordance with the following guiding principles:
(1) The goal of physical education is to instill in young citizens a proper appreciation of the importance of physical development hand in hand with the mental development in individual and social activities;
(2) The sports and other activities in a physical education program should provide opportunities for the athletic development of children and youth who have the competitive spirit as well as grace, coordination, stamina and strength;
(3) A well-rounded physical education program must be addressed to physical growth, social training, and personal, discipline for all pupils and students, as well as superior athletic achievement for those who are psychologically inclined and physically gifted; and
(4) An integrated program for sports development in the schools requires effective organizational planning and administration with provisions for adequate training facilities and sustained stable financing. Sa madaling salita ipinapakita rito na ang isports ay matagal nang nagsimula pati narin ang kahalagahan nito sa mga tao noon paman, at sinasabi rin dito na malaki ang pagpapahalaga ng pamahalaan sa isports lalo na para sa mga kabataan kung kaya’t may mga batas silang ipinatutupad ukol ditto.
Dahil sa mga ito kung kaya’t kinakailangan talagang malinang ang mga mag-aaral ng iba’t ibang paaralan sa larangan ng isports.

2. Layunin ng Pag-aaral
Ang pamanahong papel na ito ay nagbibigay ng mga impormasyon hingil sa mga isports na dapat malinang sa mga estudyante ng UPHSD at naglalayong matugunan ang mga sumusunod na katanungan:
1. Gaano kalawak ang kaalaman ng mga mag-aaral ng UPHSD ukol sa isports?
2. Saan kadalasang nanggagaling ang kaalaman ng mga mga mag-aaral ukol sa isports?
3. Ano ang saloobin ng mga mag-aaral sa pagkakaroon ng asignaturang isports?
4. Sang-ayon ba ang mga mag-aaral sa paglilinang ng isports?
5. May ginagawa ba ang pamahalaan upang tumulong sa paglilinang ng isports sa mga pag-aaralan?

3. Teoritikal na Balangkas
May sikolohiko sa Amerika na nag-ara tungkol sa paghahasa ng pang-isports na kakayahan at nakabuo ng teorya:
Bird et. al (1986) Na ang isports-na naglalaman ng emosyon, kompetisyon, kooperasyon, pagkamit sa mga bagay, at paglalaro ay nagbibigay ng magandang lugar sa pangsikolohikal na pag-aaral. Ang mga taong sumasailalim sa isports ay sumusubok na pag-aralan ang mga pinakamahihirap na kakayahan, na kung minsan ay nagreresulta sa paglalagay sa kanilang sarili sa matinding pisikal na pagod at pati rin sa mga sosyal na presyur. Nang ang mga sikolohiko na ito ay nagsimulang pag-aralan ang isports noong 1930’s at 1940’s, sila ay nagpokus sa “motor performance” at sa pagtatamo ng “motor skills”. Ang sikolohiyang pag-isports ay lumitaw bilang naiiba o panibagong disiplina noong 1960’s, na halos binubuo ng mga teorya mula sa sikolohiyang panlipunan. Mula noon ay, ang mga pag-aaral ay lumawak sa mga maraming “area” tulad ng imagery training, hypnosis, relaxation training, motivation, socialization, conflict at competition, counseling, at coaching.
Ayon sa teoryang nabasa sa itaas ang mga isports ay mayroon ring mga masamang naidudulot sa mga kabataan. Dahil ditto pumapasok sa atin ang katanungang: “May mga aksyong ginagawa an ating pamahalaan na tulad sa mga aksyong ginawa ng mga sikolohiko sa Amerika?”
4. Kahalagahan ng Pag-aaral
Naniniwala ang mga na napakahalaga ng pag-aaral na ito. Maaari itong maging gabay sa mga estudyante na naguguluhan o nagkakaroon ng katanungan sa sarili kung bakit kinakailangan na magkaroon ng asignaturang may kinalaman sa isports.
Mahahalaga ang mga impormasyong nakasulat ditto hindi lamang sa mga kasalukuyang mag-aaral kundi pati narin sa mga darating pa na mag-aaral na maaring magkaroon rin ng ganitong katanungan sa kani-kanilang mga sarili.
Sa pamamagitan ng pananaliksik na ito sisikapin ng mga mananaliksik na masagutan kahit sa mumunting paraan ang mga katanungang iyong naglalaro sa mga mag-aaral ukol sa kahalagahan ng paglilinang ng isports sa paaralan tulad na lamang ng UPHSD.
Bukod dito maaari rin nating malaman ang mga saloobin ng mga estudyante ukol sa paksang ito at ang kani-kanilang kaalaman ukol sa paksa.

5. Saklaw at Limitasyon ng Pag-aaral
Ang pananaliksik na ito ay nakatuon sa pagsusuri ng damdamin, pananaw at kaalaman ng mga mag-aaral ukol sa nasabing paksa. Saklaw nito ang mga estudyante sa kolehiyo ng University of Perpetual Help sa ikalawang semestre ng akademikong taon 2013-2014.
Naniniwala ang mga mananaliksik mainam na magkaroon ng ganitong pag-aaral sa kasalukuyang panahon upang mabawasan ang mga katanungan ng mga mag-aaral ukol sa nasabing paksa.

6. Depenisyon ng mga Terminolohiya
Upang maging mas madali at ganap ang pagkakaintindi ng mga mambabasa, minarapat naming bigyan ng depenisyon ang mga sumusunod na terminolohiya batay kung sa paano ginamit ang bawat isa sa pamanahong-papel na ito:
Ang Lascaux Cave ay ang lugar kung saan makikita ang mga komplikadong kuweba sa may Timog-kanlurang Pransiyana sikat dahil sa mga pinta sa pader ng kuweba.
Ang Bayankhongor ay isa sa mga 21 na probinsiya ng Mongolia. Ito ay matatagpuan sa Timog-kanluran ng bansa, ito ay may kabuuang sukat na 116,000 kilometro kuwadrado, at isa ito sa mga pinakamalalaking probinsya ng Mongolia.
Ang 1987 Constitution of the Republic of the Philippines ay ang konstitusyon o ang pinakamataas na uri ng mga batas sa Pilipinas. Ito ay isinabatas noong 1987, sa ilalim ng administrasyon ng dating Pangulong Corazon C. Aquino.
Ang Republic Act ay mga bagong gawang batas matapos itong mapag-aralan ng mabuti ng Kongreso at maaprubahan ng Pangulo.

KABANATA II
MGA KAUGNAY NA PAG-AARAL AT LITERATURA
Marami nang mga pag-aaral ukol sa kahalagahan ng isports sa pang araw-araw na buhay lalong lalo na sa paaralan na pokus ng paksa ng pamanahong papel.
Ang isports ay importante dahil napapalakas nito ang ating sistemang pananggalang o immune system na nagiging dahilan upang makaiwas sa mga sakit, ito rin ay nakapagpapalakas ng kumpiyansa sa ating sarili, nalilinang rin nito ang ating kakayanan na gumawa ng desisyon, at napagyayaman an gating kakayanan na makisama sa ibang mga tao. Ito rin ay nagtuturo sa atin kung paano mamuhay ng malusog.
Ayon nga kay Joshua Lampley mula nang magsimula siyang maglaro ng iba’t ibang uri ng isports ito ang nagturo sa kanya ng pinakamahihirap na aral na dapat niyang matutunan sa kanyang buhay. Natutunan niyang umupo sa bangko (nangangahulugang nang hindi paglalaro), maging supportive sa iba, magkaroon ng respeto sa desisyon ng mga nangangasiwa ng laro, at magkaroon ng sportsmanship. Matapos rin niyang mawala ang kanilang mga tiyansa na manalo sa isang laro, bumalik sa kanilang locker room na luhaan matapos ang laro, mayroon siyang natutunang bagay. Sa isports hindi natin maiiwasan na hindi makaranas ng pagkatalo kung kaya’t dapat matuto tayong maging bukas sa kalalabasan ng mga bagy-bagay lalo na sa isports, nasasatin ang paraan kung paano natin ito dadalhin sapagkat bago ka makaranas ng tagumpay ay kinakailangan muna nating dumaan sa hirap at mga pagkabigo.
Ngayong alam na natin ang kahalagahan ng isports sa buhay ano naman kaya ang kahalagahan ng isports sa paaralan.
Ayon kay Craig Hanan(2007) ang pangunahing layunin ng mga paaralan ay mas maayos na maturuan ang mga kabataan ano man ang edad at maihanda sila nang maayos upang harapin ang mundo at mga pagsubok na ihaharap nito. Isang paraan upang mas matulungan ang mga mag-aaral na maabot ang kanilang potensyal ay bigyan sila ng mga iba’t ibang opurtunidad na kung saan sila puwedeng magtagumpay. Isa sa mga opurtunidad na iyon ay ang palakasan o athletics. Ang paglalaro ng isports ay hindi lamang maganda para sa ating pisikal na pangangatawan kundi pati narin sa ating katayuang sosyal. Bukod sa silid-aralan, ang mga kabataan ay nakakabuo ng relasyon at pakikipagkaibigan sa palaruan. Ito man ay mapa-basketball, softball, football, soccer, baseball o maging hockey at iba pa. Ang pakikisalamuha sa iba’t ibang uri ng mga kabataan ay nakakatulong sa mga kabataan na mas maintindihan nila ang kanilang mga sarili at pati narin ang kanilang kapaligiran.
Iba’t iba ang uri ng mga kabataan at ang bawat kabataan ay may iba’t ibang uri ng gusto. Pag mas marami tayong papiliaang ibibigay sa kanila, mas malaki ang tyansa na maintindihan nila kung sino sila at kung ano ang kanilang gusto para sa sarili sa hinaharap. Ang isports ay isang lugar kung saan maiintindihan o malalaman ng mga kabataan kung ano ang kanilang gusto at ano ang hindi. Ito rin ay lugar kung saan sila makakapag-relax at makakapagsaya.
May mga pag-aaral rin na ginawa kung paano nakakatulong ang isports sa mga mag-aaral. Ayon sa pag-aaral ang mga mag-aaral na aktibo sa isports ay may mas mababang problema ukol sa pag-uugali kaysa sa mga hindi naglalaro ng isports. At kadalasang mas mataas ang tiwala sa sarili ng mga mag-aaral na naglalaro ng isports.
Ngayon dahil sa kahalagahan ng isports sa paaralan mas mapapabuti ito kung ating pang lilinangin sa bawat mag-aaral. Kung lilinanging natin ang isports sa bawat mag-aaral mas matututo ang mga kabataan na mas mapaghusayan ang paglalaro ng mga isports na kinahihiligan ng mga mag-aaral, kung sa gayon mas mag-eenjoy ang mga mag-aaral. Bukod rito ang paglilinang ng isports sa bawat mag-aaral ay maaaring magbukas ng panibagong opurtunidad tulad ng pagiging varsity.

KABANATA III
DISENYO AT PARAAN NG PANANALIKSIK
1. Disenyo ng pananaliksik
Ang pag-aaral na ito ay isinasagawa ayon sa disenyo ng pamaraang deskriptib-analitik na pananaliksik. Tinangkang ilarawan at suriin sa pag-aaral na ito ang damdamin, kaalaman at pananaw ng mga mag-aaral ukol sa mga isports na dapat linangin sa mga estudyante ng UPHSD.
2. Respondente
Sa pag-aaral na ito ay kukuha ag mga mananaliksik ng mga respondente mula sa kolehiyong mag-aaral sa ikalawang semestre. Walang ispesipik na kurso ang kukunin.
Pinili ng mga mananaliksik ang mga respondente sa ikalawang semestre sapagkat sila ang pinakamadaling makatutugon sa mga pangangailangan sa pamanahong papel.

3. Instrumentong Pampananaliksik
Ang pag-aaral na ito ay isinasagawa sa pamamagitan ng pagsasarbey. Ang mga mananaliksik ay naghanda ng isang sarbey-kwestyoneyr na naglalayong makapangalap ng mga datos upang masuri ang damdamin, pananaw at kaalaman ukol “Sa mga isports na dapat linangin sa mga mag-aaral ng UPHSD” ng mga respondente. Nagsasagawa rin ng pangangalap ng mga impormasyon ang mga mananaliksik sa iba’t ibang hanguan sa aklatan tulad ng mga aklat, tisis, disertasyon, pamanahong-papel at iba pang hanguan tulad na lamang ng internet.

4. Tritment ng mga Datos
Dahil ang pamanahong-papel na ito ay isang pag-aaral lamang at hindi naman isang pangangailangan sa pagtatamo ng isang digri tulad ng tisis at disertasyon, walang ginawang pagtatangka upang masuri ang mga datos sa pag-aaral na ito sa pamamagitan ng matataas at kompleks na istatistikal na pamamaraan. Bilang o dami lamang ng mga pumili sa bawat pagpipilian ng bawat aytem sa kwestyoneyr ang inalam ng mga mananaliksik. Samaktwid, ang pagta-tally at pagkuha ng porsyento lamang ang kinailangan gawin ng mga mananaliksik.Samaktwid, ang pagta-tally at pagkuha ng porsyento lamang ang kinakailangan gawin ng mga mananaliksik.

...groups and all the stages of the sports participation pyramid I am going to explain the barriers to participation from 3 different target groups at each stage of the sport development pyramid. My 3 target groups are Over 50s, Women and Young people. Over 50s is a target group because there is more over 50s playing sport now than ever before, this is because people are living longer and wish to keep fit and active. Young people is a target group because if people can get young kids active and give them a chance to do sport at a young age then it is more likely that they will carry on with sport and go up through the sports participation pyramid. Women is a target group because although traditionally women participate less in sport, the number of women in sport has gone up in the past few years. From 2005 to 2008 the overall women participating in sport went up from 2.57 Million to 2.81 Million (12.3% increase). Also more women are playing male dominated sport like Rugby and Football. Target group 1 – Over 50s At the foundation stage for Over 50s there is not any facility’s that will teach the basic skills for a sport. For most sports such as Crown green Bowling participants will go straight into the participation stage. In the participation stage for Over 50s a barrier would be cost of travel. If a person cannot drive then the cost of the buss maybe too much and if it is too far to walk the participant may have to stop playing that sport. Also the cost of membership...

...Chanel Calvin Mr. Stern English 111 March 3, 2015 Sports are too Violent Sports are activities done for pleasure which require physical and skill effort; however, violence in sports has become extremely violent. Athletes are involved, but coaches, referees, and spectators are also involved. In recent years, there has been an increase in the frequent and seriousness of acts of violence, and are most prevalent in team contact sports, such as football, ice hockey and soccer. Violence in some sports has also become a part of the entertainment arena. There are many casualties of violence in professional sports. Football is one of the most popular sports in the world, but it can be a very brutal sport. Players are hitting with the intent to injure or intimidate players, it may be part of a strategy developed by coaches or players, but with those intention come consequences. In recent years, the head injuries involved in football have been disturbingly high. Because head injuries can result in tragic effects sure as concussions, permanent brain damage including memory loss and depression; many rules have had to be enforced for player safety. Ice hockey is a very physical sport it is one of the most notorious sport for excessive violence. There are physical abuse of officials, player fights, and deliberate injuring of opponents.

Kids in Sports

...| Children In Sports| | CG| | | | Sports have been around for a very long time. They have become a large part of society. Children often start playing sports at a very young age. It seems that people think that the younger children are started out in sports, the better they will do. There has always been a big debate as to whether it is a good idea or not to involve children in organized sports. Some of the reason parents may feel it is a bad choice are the cost, risk of physical injury, and time commitment. A big concern that many parents have when they are considering whether to involve their children in sports is the cost of it. Letting children play sports can become quite expensive, especially if there are multiple children involved. To begin with, each child is usually required to pay a registration fee to even be able to play. Then, there is also the cost of buying uniforms and any equipment that is necessary for them to play a particular sport. In many sporting events, it is also required to pay an admission fee to even be able to go in and watch. All this can add up to be a lot of money to fork out, and some parents may feel that it is not worth it. Another worry that parents may have, is that their children could get hurt while playing sports. Probably any child who has ever played any type of sports has gotten hurt in one way or another. Statistics show that as many as 20 percent of children participating in sports activities are injured each year...

...Sports of old were merely competitive activities rooted in heroism and romanticism. Sports activities today, however, have no such innocence or simplicity. Currently in America, the activities that make up our sports culture is not only the competitive events themselves but the processes and issues that underlie and surround them.

Sports

...Sport (or sports) is all forms of usually competitive physical activity which,[1] through casual or organised participation, aim to use, maintain or improve physical ability and skills while providing entertainment to participants, and in some cases, spectators.[2] Hundreds of sports exist, from those requiring only two participants, through to those with hundreds of simultaneous participants, either in teams or competing as individuals. Sport is generally recognised as activities which are based in physical athleticism or physical dexterity, with the largest major competitions such as the Olympic Games admitting only sports meeting this definition,[3] and other organisations such as the Council of Europe using definitions precluding activities without a physical element from classification as sports.[2] However, a number of competitive, but non-physical, activities claim recognition as mind sports. The International Olympic Committee (through ARISF) recognises both chess and bridge as bona fide sports, and SportAccord, the international sports federation association, recognises five non-physical sports,[4][5] although limits the amount of mind games which can be admitted as sports.[1] Sports are usually governed by a set of rules or customs, which serve to ensure fair competition, and allow consistent adjudication of the winner. Winning can be determined by physical events such as scoring goals or crossing a line first, or by the determination of judges who are scoring elements...

Allowed In Sports

...Do you want your kid to be encouraged to have big dreams and do what they love? Well I know that I would. I believe that young athletes do have the same opportunities in playing sports. One reason I believe that it’s fair is disabled kids can still do sports and participate in sports as well. My second reason is that girls can also play in sports like football. Then my third reason is that parents that can not afford to take or get their kid into games, so maybe coaches take them or pay for them. Disabled is a physical or mental condition that limits a person's movement,senses, or even activities. Well, in my world I think that disabled kids are not all cut out they can still play sports and do fun activities.Today, US Education Department Office for Civil Rights has released guidance that clarifies existing legal obligations of schools to provide students with disabilities an equal opportunity to participate alongside their peers in after-school athletics and clubs. We make clear that schools may not exclude students who have an intellectual,...

Youth Sports

...Youth Sports 1 Youth Sports Youth Sports 2 Youth Sports What does it take to be successful in youth sports?  Is it an amazing young athlete with God-given abilities?  Sometimes that may be the case but many times success can be gained from a normal child when parents take the right steps to properly motivate them.  The roles of parents are an integral part in the development of a child in youth sports.  With many families having two working parents it may be hard for these parents to properly get involved in their child’s life.  The wrong kind of involvement could lead to children being “babied” or leading them to believe winning is what is most important.  This brings on unnecessary pressure creating a negative experience for the child.  How parents get involved and how they teach sports to their children both have a significant effect on the child’s experience in youth sports. Many parents have become conditioned into thinking one of their only roles in their child’s life in sports, is to be a taxi cab driver or chauffer, and to make sure they’re registered and signed up for the leagues, camps, or clinics. Parents often forget that they can and should be more involved with their children. In the article “The Good Father: Parental Expectation and Youth Sports” the author discusses the father’s role in youth sports. In society, fathers are looked upon as the head...

Beer and Sports

...Milgram 1 Cory Milgram WR 121 Abby Grewatz Essay 3.2 3/13/13 Beer and Sports Sports are a huge source of entertainment in the world. Watching sports is an excellent activity that the whole family can enjoy. More than ever before, fans in America can turn on their HDTVs and tune into their sporting event of choice. With such a large quantity of viewers glued to their TV sets, companies have begun paying top dollar to direct their advertisements at sports enthusiasts. Commercials relating to sports have commonly been extremely successful and consumers purchase these companies products at an astounding rate. The problem I have with sports related advertisements specifically relates to the beer industry. These are some of the most profitable corporations and suck people in with multimillion-dollar commercials. These commercials are clever yet often deceitful. Beer commercials also air more frequently than that of nearly any other product. This gives viewers a constant reminder to purchase a product that, in fact, can be dangerous and detrimental to one's health. Beer commercials should be banned from televised sporting events because beer commercials make viewers believe they are dependent on alcohol consumption to enjoy watching sports. Watching televised sports is viewed as a social event. Gathering around the television with friends, living and dying with every pitch, is a rich part of the American culture and its tradition. These are the moments people look forward...
