The findings showed that at present, families, friends and social institutions, the medical community, the Ministry of Sport and, the national media, have a significant role in promoting the culture of sport in society. But government executives and politicians, religious leaders and scholars, artists, elite athletes and celebrities are passive in promoting a culture of sports. Regarding the findings, it is necessary for sport managers to identify and implement strategies to use the potential of different cultures to promote sport culture.
