In our day, individuals, groups, societies watch the athletes, imitate them and see them as a symbol representing themselves in the contest they watch. Today, developed countries prefer play-fields rather than battle-fields to prove their superiority. Therefore all factors that effect athletes towards sport are evaluated and a positive improvement is provided. Also, sports’ turning into a huge sector to several billion dollars increased the importance of sports, accordingly clubs and countries much more. Here, the base of the athlete’s success in this situation is founded on his doing sports in the healthiest and the highest performance. Because of all these reasons, the limits of bodily abilities, performance and scientific knowledge providing this performance are pushed in the last century. It is known that there are many physical, psychological, social, economical and cultural mechanisms that are effective on athlete’s performance. Therefore, to take into account all components, all determining and effecting factors of the performance also requires to do the necessary. Man isn’t only a physical and physiological being but also an entity having psychological, sociological and cultural features. Therefore, social environment and economical situation affect the athlete’s success in sports environment. The “social environment” term has become to be used in a great variety of areas ranging from politics to science by entering our daily lives. Social environment is consisted of family, immediate surroundings, school-work environment and society mass communication and affected by these components. It is a fact that there is a relation between social development and economy since economical development creates social needs and economical development can’t happen without social development.

The subjects’ playing sports for long years, being professional and their worry about losing ,when they are unsuccessful at sports, the good life conditions such as education, health, diet, sheltering that they get when they are successful at sports may be of reasons why getting financial income factor is highly popular for players. There is a meaningful relation between subjects’ income levels and the ranks that they get in international competitions and it is observed that the individuals especially having low income levels can’t place in international competitions table 5 . A meaningful relation has been found between the social environment, settlement, parents’ educational background, job, career and the player’s performance. table 6 As a conclusion; there is a significant relation between the economical state and difference of incomes with income level.

As the result of this, the fact that the economical state of the sportsmen faced one important factor affecting their towards sports is more significant to us. It may be suggested that sports should be made common in society and more financial support should be given to elite players as well apart from main sports such as football, basketball, volleyball, elite players should be shown as models and introduced in directing children and young’s towards athletics branch
