The global para-athletics movement has gained significant recognition since the establishment of the Paralympic Games in 1960, offering athletes with disabilities a platform to compete at the highest levels. Over the years, this movement has played a pivotal role in advancing inclusion and sportsmanship for individuals with disabilities worldwide. The Philippines has been involved in para-athletics since the 1980s, with its first participation in the Paralympic Games in 1988. Currently, an estimated 1.44 million people in the Philippines live with disabilities, many of whom could benefit from the opportunities provided by para-sports programs. However, access to these programs is often limited due to financial constraints and lack of awareness. This study employed a quantitative and descriptive research methodology to assess the current state of parasport training facilities in the Philippines. A customized survey questionnaire was distributed to respondents who have firsthand knowledge and experience with parasport training centers. The descriptive research method focused on answering the "what" and "how" aspects of the study, but did not address "why" questions. The theoretical framework was constructed from data gathered from participants who had direct experience with the process of utilizing parasport training facilities. The findings revealed that accessibility remains a significant concern for athletes using parasport training facilities. Despite the presence of some parasport training centers, their effectiveness in meeting the specialized needs of athletes remains insufficient. There is a strong and growing demand for dedicated parasport training facilities in the country.
