Abstract :Color blindness is a disability that negatively affects human life and people with this disability are confronted in every aspect of life. Since this disease does not manifest itself physically, it cannot be perceived by healthy individuals and there is not enough awareness in societies to prevent this disability. It is important that activity areas and the objects used in these areas are adapted to color tones that color blind people can perceive. This deficiency is noticeable in many areas such as sports halls, sports competitions, recreational activity areas, TV and computers with visual interaction. The aim of this study is to pave the way for new studies by revealing the obstacles that colorblind individuals may encounter in sports competitions, passive and active recreation activities. In this study, which adopted a qualitative research design, document analysis was used as the data collection technique. Current approaches that can be applied are discussed in the light of literature information, and common problems encountered by colour-blind people and suggestions for solutions are presented. As a result, this situation has started to be taken into consideration in sports organizations in recent years and some steps have been taken in this regard, although not enough. In recreational activity areas, however, it is noticeable that this awareness is at a very low level.Keywords : Renk körlüğü, Rekreasyon, Spor müsabakaları
