While there are no significant differences in scores of people-oriented leader, structure-oriented leader and transformation leadership by gender (p>0,05), statistically significant differences were revealed in charismatic leadership characteristics (p<0,05). No statistically significant difference was observed in characteristics of people-oriented, structure-oriented, transformational leadership and charismatic features based upon the age groups, Team and individual sports and receiving any title in national and International competitions (p>0,05). Some significant differences were discovered in some sub-dimensions in the domicile and number of siblings. A significant difference was found in some of the subscales of the scale according to the type of the recreate activity (p <0.05). Conclusion: It was concluded that the students taking sports education in the University demonstrate similar leadership tendencies and they are at a level that is deemed good.
