as fully aware on immediate treatment. This implies that the athletes
are fully aware in the different sport injury. It shows that the athletes
of the university are knowledgeable on how to prevent those injury
appear during sport event. And it is good for them to be aware

healthy. The lowest weighted mean with (3.21) which means that the
athletes moderately aware in treating this kind of injury this is a
remarkable belief of athletes hard for them to distinguish the injury.
This is an indication that the athletes are familiar and aware to this
kind of injury however this injury happen because this injury targets
the ball and socket bone and they have lack of knowledge in
preventing this. The result for the second problem, it was found out
that the athletes are applying immediate treatment in sport injury with
(3.54) as the overall mean this indicate that the methods in immediate
treatment are fully applied. The other lowest data on the table with an
 weighted mean of (2.39) and it shows the application of immediate
