Descriptive research design was employed using Grades 9 to 10 were the respondents, chosen through purposive sampling technique in which checklist type of questionnaire was used. It is a combination of a standard questionnaire that the researcher adapted and made a few revisions to fit the study and a self-made questionnaire and inputs were taken from the review of related literature and studies. Descriptive statistics, Weighted Mean and Standard Deviation, and Pearson Product Moment Correlation Coefficient (r), were used to test the hypotheses. Related readings on the literature and studies were gathered in the formulation of the hypothesis and the conceptual framework which was presented in a form of a paradigm. The findings revealed the level of coaching commitment is very high. The level of coaching commitment in terms of Competition Strategies attained a mean score of 4.40, Goal Setting attained a mean score of 4.35, Knowledge in Sports attained a mean score of 4.44, , Mental Preparation attained a mean score of 4.29, Personal Rapport/ Negative Personal Rapport attained a mean score of 4.36, of Physical Training and Condition attained a mean score of 4.43, Teamwork attained a mean score of 4.54, , Technical Skills attained a mean score of 4.52, and Time Management attained a mean score of 4.43 which is also very high. The level of physical development is highly developed (3.45). The level of physical development in terms of caring (3.59), character (3.57), competence (3.310), confidence (3.31), and connections (3.47) is also highly developed. The result showed that Competition Strategies, Goal Setting, Physical Training and Condition, Teamwork, Technical Skills, and Time Management were observed to have no significant effect to the Caring, Character, Competence, Confidence, and Connection of the respondents. Thus, Mental Preparation was observed to have a significant negative effect on caring. Also, Personal Rapport/ Negative Personal Rapport were observed to have a significant positive effect on Caring, Character and Connection. Furthermore, Knowledge in Sports was observed to have a significant positive effect on Connection. It can be inferred that at 0.05 level of significance, the null hypothesis that ?Coaching commitment does not significantly affect physical development? is rejected. This calls for the acceptance of the alternative which incites that there is a significant effect on the commitment of coaches to the physical development of student-athletes.
