awarded with the Mythical 5 and Most Valuable Player (MVP) which means we
contributed a high amount of points for the overall score to boost up, and by that we
conquered the lower levels resulting for us to be the overall champion. Behind it was
challenging especially we need to practice to improve and dominate the lower levels
because we’re the oldest in our campus, and the pressure is on the athletes. Finding time
to train whether individual or group, it was hard, because we mostly use our school
hours on academics and the cut off time is used for the cheer dance and yell competition.

Philippines, February 19) as President Rodrigo Duterte signed the Republic Act 11214
or the Philippine Sports Training Center Act. The law requires construction of
necessary sports facilities and amenities within 18 months in a location that is suitable
and conducive to high level training of athletes, coaches, and referees. With a budget

Universities are most likely to participate in sport competitions like the famous

athletes that participate in competitions are not only from Manila, but also in different
regions in the country that showcase impressive records and positive attitude in their
sport. In doing so, some student-athletes were already given scholarships. These
athletes want to pursue their passion that’s why most of them who graduate, continues
challenging high school life. Most people say that these students only focus on their
sport, which they are unable to balance their academic life. In this study, we tend to
take a closer look on the student-athlete on how they develop or change, whether
performance in college while few addressed the situation in the high school level. Our
study is different from the past studies in which our group focuses on the effects,
progress and development of the athlete itself. According to Sitkowski (2008), the
effect of participation on athletics, with respect to its direct effect on the participants
student-athletes also experience hardships in academics and not all the time they have
exemptions or considerations, they find a way for themselves to cope up with their
student-athletes that they also work hard for their grades, in order to achieve success
both in sports and school. It can be an eye opener to people who don’t have any
education in what student-athletes are really doing and how does it affect them when
This study would be beneficial and may provide essential information to the
Department of Education (DepEd) as they are relevant with the development of young
minds that’s why this study will provide a wider perspective on the passing of required
curriculum each year and lessen the units needed to take. Also, this study will open the
eyes of the government agencies/officials because they are basically called as the law
makers thus this study will benefit them, for they will procure wisdom in making and
passing laws for student athletes. The findings of this study will be a great help to the
coaches/trainers for they are the people who guide one another in learning a new skill,
making them more responsible of the students. This study will help them on how to
train the athletes with the accordance of the students being students. Also, the findings
of this study can help school administrators, as educational managers, to guide them on
how to manage the schedule and studies of the students and be able to execute special
programs. For teachers, this study will give them more understandings to give more
considerations and help the students to catch up on their missed lessons as they are the
educational instruments. On a bigger picture, this study will have a great impact to the
students who are in the secondary level and are considered the second main concern in
the educational system. The findings of this study will inspire, motivate and enlighten
them what a student-athlete is like. This research’s result will be advantageous to the
parents because this study will open their eyes about their child’s school life. Parental
encouragement and support for learning activities are a major factor for a child. They
create conditions in which children learn more effectively. In addition, it will be a big
help as time passes by for researchers as this study would serve as a guide for their
future reference for more studies ahead that they’ll do. It will help the student
researchers to be more aware and knowledgeable about the topic. Lastly, for the
researchers themselves, the findings of this study will expand their knowledge about
