The implications of online learning versus face-to-face learning have been discussed for several years in higher education. Hence, this study's objective was to assess the learning satisfaction towards Online Distance Learning (ODL) and its relationship with ODL readiness in the context of Physical Education setting. This quantitative research adopted an online survey method that measure the ODL readiness and learning satisfaction among 172 Physical and Health Education students who are practicing ODL due to Corona Virus Disease (COVID-19) pandemic. The results indicate that ODL readiness is more likely to affect the learning satisfaction among students while having ODL session and it led to low satisfaction level in learning. The results of learning satisfaction level showed a small effect in accordance to gender; male students are anticipated to have slightly higher than female students due to dissimilarity of skill possessed. On this basis, it is recommended the ODL readiness among students should be considered when performing ODL classes in order to achieve high learning satisfaction towards ODL.
