Abstract
Sports facilities management is a vital field that requires a balance between theoretical knowledge and practical skills to ensure management efficiency. With the increasing interest in sports, it has become necessary to provide educational programs that meet the needs of this sector. Through the Sports Facilities Management course, Taibah University seeks to provide students with the skills necessary for success. The present study aims to evaluate the level of satisfaction of male and female students with the Sports Facilities Management course at Taibah University, as a tool for qualifying graduates capable of managing sports facilities effectively. The questionnaire included several sections, including the course plan, the performance of faculty members, and the availability of educational resources. Data from 70 male students and 38 female students were analyzed using the SPSS program. The findings showed that the majority of male and female students were satisfied with the course, as the approval rates ranged between 92.29% and 96.84%. Female students showed a higher level of satisfaction compared to their male counterparts, without statistically significant differences, indicating the equivalence of the educational experience. The clarity of the curriculum and the availability of educational resources had a positive impact on student satisfaction, while the need to enhance interaction between students and faculty members through office hours or academic consultations emerged. The study recommended developing teaching methods, updating educational content, and enhancing academic support to ensure that courses are compatible with labor market requirements. It also emphasized the importance of periodic evaluation of courses to ensure the continuity of educational quality. The results reflect high satisfaction with the course and the university’s efforts to provide high-quality education, with opportunities for continuous improvement.
