The validity of the questionnaire was confirmed by 10 sports management professors and its reliability was confirmed by Cronbach's alpha test (α=93%). Interpretive structural modeling technique was used for modeling. The findings showed that 48 indicators in the form of 11 components have an effect on the development of student sports talent management.
