Abstract
Entrepreneurship education is becoming increasingly important because it can improve the employability of students. However, although it has been introduced in universities in recent years, its integration into sports education is still scarce. Therefore, the aim of this study is to present a way of approaching a sports management subject from an entrepreneurial perspective and to evaluate the effects of that approach on students. For this purpose, a sample of 54 sports science students from a Spanish university has been analysed. A longitudinal design has been carried out using Ajzen's theory of planned behaviour (1991), intrapreneurial intentions, the entrepreneurial climate and the entrepreneurial skills as the bases for analysing the effects of this approach on students. The results show that students who receive this training significantly improve their perception of perceived behavioural control and the university's climate towards entrepreneurship. This paper also highlights that the approach affects students differently depending on their existing characteristics. Finally, a series of practical implications for sport education managers are presented.
