'Winter Sports Awareness Scale' was administered to collect the data for this study. This five-point Likert type scale consists of 35 items. SPSS 20 program was used for the analysis of the data. Skewness-Kurtosis values were calculated, accordingly, parametric tests were used. Independent sample t-test was used for pair-wise comparisons, and one-way analysis of variance and Tukey HSD were used for multiple comparisons. The results of the analysis revealed medium level awareness for winter sports for all the groups. The comparisons of the mean scores for 'gender' and 'family income' variables revealed no significant differences, whereas significant differences were found for 'university', 'experience in winter sports' and 'family members' interest in winter sports' variables.
