The findings regarding participation pattern indicated that, secondary school students participated in sports such as football, netball, basketball and volleyball. Furthermore students participated in physical activities such as walking, jogging, and rope-skipping. Moreover, it was found that, individual and environmental influenced students’ participation in physical activity. Furthermore, it was found that majority of the students are aware on the benefits of physical activity but participation was low because of lack environmental and government support to make them participate in physical activity.
