Preliminary questions were developed after researching responses to the questions in terms of comprehension and clarity and reviewing withp rofessionals. Then, 328 questionnaires were collected from the participants. Question reviews and normality test were conducted. Exploratory factor analysis was processed by maximum likelihood estimation and oblique rotation. Cronbach’s alpha was extracted to verify the reliability of the scale’s sub-factors. The significance level was p＜.05. Results: Through question analysis, descriptive statistics, the correaltion of factors, and exploratory factor analysis, 9 factors (attention, awareness, the present awakening, openness, self-tolerance, decentralized nonjudgment, acceptance, re-concentration, and skills) and 35 questions were extracted. Cronbach’s alpha of each factor is ranged from .773 to .900, which is relatively high. Conclusion: The scale for Mindfulness sports psychological skills is a maesurement tool that scientifically obtains reliability and validity.
