The Covid-19 virus, which appeared in  Wuhan, China in late December 2019 and early  January 2020, caused fear and anxiety worldwide.  This virus, which causes deaths in all countries  where the epidemic occurs, seriously threatens all  people. In order to reduce the number of deaths and  slow down the spread rate of the virus which has  spread to more than 180 countries including Turkey  and threatened people from all sectors, serious,  fundamental decisions were made by the Turkish  Ministry of Health and all other official institutions  resulting in various important effects and results in  many areas including social, economical, political,  financial, administrative, legal, military, religious  and cultural, and these decisions were conveyed to  the society through all communication channels.  European Championships which were  planned to be held in 2020, all kinds of international  sports events and organizations, leagues, all kinds of  conferences, scientific conferences, organizations  and mass religious gatherings were postponed or  canceled. Due to the cancellations, all kinds of  businesses have suffered great losses along with the  people in the sports tourism industry, businesses in  the material supply chain of sports industry.  Nevertheless, athletes, businesses, coaches, sports  club owners, athletes who did not have the disease  and who did not have Covid-19 symptoms, were  indirectly faced with loss of work, and thus, were  affected deeply by the pandemic due to the trauma  caused by the disruption of their financial balance,  fear, and uncertainty.  In this qualitative study, the current  situation was analyzed to identify the measures  taken in order for sports activities to start again, to  establish trust in sports organizations, and to protect  the health of the sports community and the audience.  Based on the findings, recommendations for the  future were developed.
