The researchers looked at the existing propounded theories, relate it to sport development and as well as the workability of the theories in bringing about the desired sport development. The curriculum theories looked at those propounded by humanist (or mental disciplinarians), social efficiency, developmentalist (or child study), and social meliorists while the following development theories are also x-rayed upon. Based on the knowledge gained from the propounded theories the following recommendations were made for sport development in NigeriaItem Interscholastic sports participation among selected private secondary schools students in osogbo, Nigeria(The faculty of education university of port harcourt, port harcourt, nigeria., 2014) Adisa, O.; Oyedele, A.O.This study investigated interscholastic sports participation of selected private secondary school students in Osogbo, Osun State, Nigeria.

Descriptive survey design was used for the study. The instrument for data collection was self developed and structured questionnaire in four- point likert scale format. Descriptive statistics of frequency count and percentages were used to describe the demographic data, while the parametric statistics oft-test and ANOVA set at 0.05 alpha level were used to test the hypotheses. A total number of one thousand, one hundred and sixty-five [1,165] Higher National Diploma [HND] students served as respondents for the study. Multistage sampling technique was used in three stages to select the respondents, namely: purposive sampling technique was used to select the schools; stratified sampling technique was used to select the Faculties and Departments, while proportionate sample of 25% was selected from each stratum. Three hypotheses were formulated to guide the study. The following were the values obtained: Difference in Attitude towards Pre-marital Genetic Screening [Crit-t = 1.96, Cal.t = 1.310, df = 1163, P > .05]; Difference in Attitude Due to Religion [F[2,1162] = .689, P > .05] and Difference in Attitude Due to Course of Study (F[5,1159] = .585, P > .05]. Conclusions were drawn based on the findings of the study.

O.; Adisa, O.The gap between developed and underdeveloped countries has become so wide that the latter have lost any hope of closing it in terms of either sport performance or organization of big sports events. Problems of sport development in a developing and emerging nation like Nigeria has been linked to lack of proper manpower training. Physical education and sport management courses for long offer a good platform for manpower training of sport managers, unfortunately the pedagogical nature of physical education has dwarfed the scope of the course. The decline status of physical education is as a result of low level of awareness among Nigerians of the merits of physical education. This lack of knowledge has led to decline in the enrolment in physical education and recreation classes particularly in tertiary institutions. Comparison of some Nigerian universities physical education programmes with those in the developed countries reveals a great disparity. While the developed countries have diversified their physical education curriculum to pave way for the emergence of several sport related disciplines, in order to keep pace with the high level of sport development, Nigeria still sticks with curriculum cum programmes that was developed in the 1960s. Perhaps taking a global look on this issue by developing attractive and relevant sport programmes from the current physical education/human kinetics and inclusion of internship in addition to teaching practice will assist in developing Nigerian Sport to enviable height. Descriptive survey research design was used for this study. The sample consisted of 2003 participants selected from among physical education students (graduate and undergraduate), lecturers and sport practitioners through purposive and incidental sampling techniques. Simple random sampling technique was used to select 4 national sport commission development zones and 18 state sport councils spread across the selected zones. While stratified random sampling technique was used to group the 24 universities offering physical education programme into the 4 selected zones, simple random sampling technique was used to select at least 50% of the universities offering Physical Education programme in each of the selected zones. The instruments used for data collection were sport curriculum diversification scale (r=0.81), and sport development scale (r=0.79). Two research hypotheses were formulated and tested at 0.05 alpha level. Data collected were analyzed using inferential statistics of multiple regression, and descriptive statistics of mean and standard deviation. The findings reveal that inclusion of internship and improved subject status of physical education are significant to sport development; Internship (6=.055, P (.015) < 0.05), improve subject status (6=.099, P (.000) < 0.05. The result shows that the two predictor variables were independently significant. The study also revealed that development of new sport disciplines will contribute to sport development and improved status of physical education in Nigeria. It is recommended that to improve sport development in Nigeria there is need for development of new sport disciplines at the undergraduate level to attract more brilliant students into the field of sport management and to ensure provision of adequate qualify manpower for the nation's sport sector. It was also recommended that internship should be included in tandem with teaching practice exercise in the physical education curriculumItem Manpower training as indices of sport development in nigeria(2012) Omolawon, K. O.; Adisa, O.In our society sport fulfils important functions and is indeed indispensable. It offers opportunities for physical activity in a world where physical activity is increasingly diminishing; it promotes good health and well being (when pursued in moderation); and it provides a means of social contact and simple opportunity for economic experienced. Nigeria has made very significant impact in certain sport particularly soccer in which the country has done very well in the age group competitions. However, much of our successes at the international arena are due more to natural talents of our athletes rather than superior organization and training. Therefore, this study sought to investigate manpower training as indices of sport development in Nigeria. Descriptive survey research design was used for this study. The sample consisted of two thousand and three (2003) participants selected through purposive and incidental sampling techniques. Simple random sampling technique was used to select four National Sport Commission (NSC) sport development zones and 18 states councils spread across the selected NSC sport development zones. While stratified random sampling technique was used to group the twenty-four (24) universities offering physical and health education programme into the four (4) selected sports development zones, simple random sampling technique was used to select at least 50% of the universities offering PHE programme in each of the selected zones. The instruments used were manpower training need scale (MATS) (r—08) and sport development scale (SDS) (r—0.79). Two research hypotheses were formulated and tested at 0.05 level of significance. Data collected were analyzed using inferential statistics of multiple regreK,ssion. The study revealed that joint effect of independent variable of manpower training on sport development yielded coefficient R2 = . 07). The F Manpower Training as Indices o f Sport... value (F2, 2000) = 107.868, P<.05) was found to be significant. The result indicates that there is need for high quality continuous guided training for personnel training in the country in which sport establishments and universities in Nigeria need to collaborate. It is recommended among others that one of the ways to improve the sport business environment in Nigeria is by establishing platform for continuous guided training for all sport personnel in Nigeria.Item Knowledge of pre-marital genetic screening among students of osun state polytechnics in nigeria(2011) Adetola, O.A; Adisa, O.; Akintola, O.
