Abstract:
This study aims to know the recreational activities and create a proposed recreational development plan in Antipolo Rizal. The research design used for this study is a descriptive method and quantitative method to accomplish this. The statistical population of the research consisted of 400 retirees living in NCR, 60 years old or above with pension, and participating in recreational activities. The sample was selected by purposive sampling. Due to the pandemic, the research instrument used was an online survey with close-ended questions and an adapted questionnaire. It was validated by three (3) experts in the recreational and leisure tourism industry with a Cronbach- alpha reliability result of 0.93. The data was collected and tabulated using the statistical method of this study with the null hypothesis criteria to analyze the results. The overall results showed that retirees perceived those recreational activities are highly effective for their quality of life. The data showed that most retirees participating in recreational activities are female, aged 60-65 years old, and their monthly pension provider is SSS. There is no significant difference in the perceived level of effectiveness to quality of life when grouped according to their profile. However, there is a significant difference when grouped according to their monthly pension. There is a significant relationship between the perceived level of effectiveness of quality of life towards sub-variables and its dimensions. The output of this study is a recreational development plan for retirees in Antipolo Rizal that consists of recommendations reflected from the study.
