To analyze the data, descriptive statistics and inferential statistics were used using Kolmogorov Smirnov tests, Pearson correlation and multiple regression in SPSS software version 26 and structural equation model in Amos software version 24. The obtained results showed that there is a significant relationship between core competencies and innovation, core competencies and intellectual capital, and between intellectual capital and innovation in sports organizations of the country.
