There is a paradigm shift in sport sciences. Social life which includes sport is changing, our perceptions and interests are changing. Our ontological, epistemological assumptions and therefore our methodological assumptions are changing. Therefore, in Turkey and in the world, the number of qualitative studies has been increased in recent years. However, we cannot see the similar increase in the quality and richness of the qualitative studies. Because young sport scientists who are learning and practicing qualitative research have a fuzzy instruction (Koca ve Hünük, 2016). One of the reasons for this is that they cannot position the learning resources of qualitative research into their research contexts. In this article, I aimed to position qualitative research into sport and sport sciences. I tried to discuss the fundamental features of qualitative research, paradigm, research designs, data collection techniques, data analysis, and credibility strategies within the context of sport sciences. I hope that I will provide a route map to the sport scientists who would like to conduct a qualitative study.
