The purpose of this study was to design a model of competences of entrepreneurs in the
sports industry. Research method was descriptive-survey and the sample consisted of
155 experts and professors in physical education and entrepreneurship fields. The
research instrument consisted of a researcher-constructed questionnaire, model-based
building block competency with 101 items that evaluated competences of entrepreneurs
in the sports industry in 5 dimensions including personal skills, science and academic
competences, workplace competences, science and principles of entrepreneurship, and
sport industry-wide competences. Data were analyzed by using tests of descriptive
statistics and inferential statistics, confirmatory factor analysis, and Pearson's correlation
coefficient with SPSS and LISREL softwares. Results showed personal skills, sciences
and academic competences, workplace competences, science and principles of
entrepreneurship, and sport industry-wide competences make up 5 main levels of the
research model, and 24 components explain these dimensions. Finally, 100 indices were
identified for competences of entrepreneurs in the sports industry. Also, results indicated
that the indices of the model are appropriate and acceptable. The model developed in
this study can be used as an instruction for developing the competences of entrepreneurs
in students, staff and administrators in universities, sports organizations and other
custodians and policymakers in sports.
