This research aims to examine the current administrative system of Saudi Universities Sport Federation (SUSF) based on quality assurance.

Researchers collected data through The Current Administrative System Questionnaire (CASQ) for SUSF employees. The Survey of Total Quality Assurance for SUSF top management (STQA-Management) and The Survey of Total Quality Assurance for SUSF beneficiaries (STQA-Beneficiaries). Results show that SUSF's goals are clearly set, also SUSFs' plans are consistent with the general goals of the Sports Welfare Movement at Saudi Arabia.

Introduction and Statement of the Problem: Modern management is currently seeking to develop and upgrade its techniques in order to keep up with administrative change and development at the global level (9 : 15). The institutions which believe that the function of management is to organize resources and employ them within the institutions to achieve external results will not be able to hold out in a world dominated by constant competitiveness, change and modern technology (2 : 14). Therefore, it is necessary to pay serious attention to the management techniques through which these institutions are run and managed in order to achieve competitive advantage. Quality is considered one of those elements through which competitive advantage, which is strategically necessary for the continuity and success of organizations, can be achieved (36 : 8). Concern with the quality of services provided by governmental organizations has been recently increased due to the problems impeding the performance of these organizations. Therefore, several organizations have adopted certain management techniques which proved to be effective in achieving improvement, and of these techniques is total quality management (2 : 257). Total quality management is considered one of the modern management trends adopted for the purpose of attaining better performance that helps solve several problems and difficulties related to quality, performance improvement and competitiveness of the organization (3 : 6). The higher education sector is one of the most important sectors in the field of youth work as it involves an elite of the youths of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. They are categories that sports services must be directed to them as being one of human preparation elements and his physical, mental, psychological and social rehabilitation in a consistent way with the society philosophy in which he lives in order to ensure him the ability of global competitiveness (5 : 2).
