N2  - ABSTRACT: Objectives. This study aimed to determine correlation of coaches age, educational attainment and years of practice about the awareness of the roles of physical therapist in preventing and treating sports injuries. Design. The study used descriptive design. Methods. 40 team coaches of different sports from Araullo High School & Young Men's Christian Association participated from the study. Awareness of coaches on the roles of physical therapy was measured using a self-administered questionnaire based on the Pilot Study administered at Caloocan High School. The researchers gathered the accomplished survey sheets, tallied the results and were statistically analyzed. Results. A value of r = 0.24 was computed for the existence of relationship between the coaches ages and their level of awareness is weak. This group is composed of coaches from the 20 to mid 40 age range. Using the correlation test to assess the level of relationship between years of practice and the awareness of a coach yield a -0.25 value of r, Limitations. Limitations of this research are the concentration of subjects in only two facilities and their limited number. Another limitation is the use of the Likert-type scale that has closed-ended questions, although it served better statistically, it limited the subjects to their answers. Conclusions. Most of the respondents are male coaches ranging 30-49 yrs old with approximately 5-10 years in practice. Majority of the participants in the study attained Bachelor of Science in Physical Education. The respondents who are within 20-29 years old are mostly aware of the role of physical therapy in the prevention and treatment of sports injuries. The respondents who are within 50-59 years of age are mostly unaware of the roles of physical therapy in prevention and treatment of sports injuries
