The aim of the study is to determine the level of sports commitment of individuals who benefit from private sports facilities in terms of various variables. A total of 137 volunteers, 39 women and 98 men, randomly selected from the customers of a private sports facility in Sivas, participated in the study. The data collection tools in the study are the 4-item “Personal Information Form” that determines the demographic information of the participants and the 3-factor and 15-item “Sports Commitment Scale” that evaluates the level of commitment to sports. Statistical analyses of the data obtained were made with SPSS 25.0 program. Candidates' personal information, inventory total scores and factor scores are given as frequency (f) and percentage (%) values. Independent T test was used for pairwise comparisons of the scores obtained from the scales, and F test was used for comparisons of three or more variables. HSD test statistics were used in pairwise comparisons where significant differences were detected. As a result of the study, no significant difference was found between the participants' level of commitment to sports and gender and duration of membership to the sports facility. Significant differences were found in terms of age and frequency of doing sports (per week). The sports commitment levels of participants in the 18-30 age group are significantly higher than those in older age groups. In addition, the increase in the frequency of doing sports (per week) causes a significant increase in all sub-factors of sports commitment (vigor, dedication and internalization).
