The study group of the research in the relational research model consists of a total of 1493 university students, 963 males and 530 females, selected by convenience sampling method from the Faculty of Sports Sciences. In addition to the personal information form, the "Recreation Awareness Scale (RAS)" developed by Ekinci and ozdilek (2017) and the "Entrepreneurship Scale for University Students (ESUS)" developed by Yilmaz and Sunbul (2009) were used in the research. Manova, Anova, Regression and Pearson correlation statistical methods were used for data analysis. The results of the analysis differ significantly according to the gender, place of growth, business idea and work experience of the "RAS" and according to the variables of gender, level of welfare, business idea and work experience of the "ESUS". As a result, it can be said that as the recreation awareness level of university students increases, their entrepreneurship level increases.
