The aim of this study is to determine the place and scope of sports in metropolitan municipality services in Turkey. It is to identify the shortcomings of an institution that produces services of this size in the local area in terms of sports management and to make recommendations to address these deficiencies, to shed light on the implementation of sports services that are considered to be missing in local authorities by creating a standard service policy. In this study, the services provided by thirty metropolitan municipalities were obtained from the websites of the municipalities, by mail and petition. The findings were collected in accordance with the document analysis method. The results were interpreted by comparison method. According to the findings, local government departments have not been able to extend sports services too much from their web pages. In addition, data on sports services could not be reached in most of the metropolitan municipalities. It was observed that only five of the unit managers working in the units providing sports services received sports training. It has been observed that sports services operate under different departments in twelve metropolitan municipalities. It has been observed that most of the sports facilities and open spaces are insufficient. It is observed that there are also deficiencies in creating employment in sports and not hiring enough trainers. It has been observed that the number of athletes and the capacities of the sports branches in which they are active are low. It has been concluded that metropolitan municipalities also develop their web and online systems in sports / recreation areas in a way that will help the qualifications of the cities and provide better service to the public.
