Purposively selected as the respondents were P.E. teachers of this study. A set of questionnaires was the primary data gathering tool. The collected data were collated, tabulated, and analyzed using frequency counts, percentages, means, ranks, multiple regression analysis, and t-test. Based on the findings of this study it arrived at the conclusion that the P.E. teachers in the three campuses of the University of Eastern Philippines are young, male, married, a Bachelor’ degree holder with M.A. units, with an average of 3.29 years in teaching PE and 6.32 years in coaching sports; and had attended more than one in-service training.

Generally the overall strategies in the implementation of P.E. activities was poor although it satisfactorily utilized filed demonstrations. In terms of implementing the sports activities, volleyball, badminton, table tennis, running events in short, middle, and long distance, and discus throw tended to be a little above moderate implementation. The adequacy of sports equipment was “moderately adequate” showing “highly adequate” in badminton and volleyball paraphernalia. The availability of sports facilities was generally “often available.” However, were as “always available” included sports facilities such as basketball court, soccer/football filed, and volleyball court. Swimming pool and boxing ring were not available. The leading problems encountered towards the implementation were lack of in-service training for all P.E. teacher and coaches; and inadequate supply of sports equipment. The study did not establish a significant relationship between the P.E. teachers’ profile and the level of implementation of P. E. activities. Comparison between the three campuses of the University of Eastern Philippines revealed no significant difference in the levels of implementation of the UEP P.E. activities. It is recommended that logistical support in terms of manpower development be initiated by the administration. Variables such as the factors to enhance participation of concerned individuals be included in subsequent studies.
