The research method was descriptive correlation which was carried out as a field. The population included all employees of Sport and Youth general office and offices in the cities of Ardebil province (N=100) and the sample was equal to the population using census sampling method. According to the research aims, two questionnaires (Organizational Trust and Creativity) were used to collect data. The questionnaires were prepared using Shafiei (2011) and Nasimi (2013) researches. The validity of the questionnaires was confirmed by sport management professors and their reliability was determined by the Cronbach's alpha coefficient (Organizational Trust 0.92, Creativity 0.84). For the statistical analysis of data, the descriptive and inferential statistics (Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, Pearson correlation coefficient, multiple regression) were used. Ultimately, findings showed that four components of organizational trust (reliability, organizational commitment, competency and honesty) had positive and significant relationships with creativity of human resources.
