The Attitude of University Students to Participating in Sports for All in Saudi Arabia

Abstract

The present study aims to investigate the attitude, obstacles, and suggestions for female students to participate in sports for all in Saudi Arabia. It adopted the social survey approach and applied the questionnaire and scale of attitude to a randomly selected sample of (375) students at King Saud University. The study concluded that the total score of the attitude was high. The cognitive, behavioral, and emotional aspects were ranked first, second, and third, respectively. The free time constraints, temperature, and weather fluctuations are the most significant obstacles, while increasing women's clubs and decreasing subscription fees are the most important constituents. The study recommends providing various and free sports activities, courses, and symposia to disseminate the culture of sports for all among university students.
