Puerto Rico Department of Sports and Recreation
- Puerto Rico Department of Sports and Recreation

The Department of Sports and Recreation of Puerto Rico is one of the cabinet-level departments within the Government of the United States Commonwealth of Puerto Rico. Unlike several of the departments created in the United States territory's 1952 Constitution (including State, Justice, Education, Commerce and Agriculture, among others), the Department of Sports and Recreation was created by statute.
In January 2009 Henry Neumann succeeded Lucy Molinary as Secretary of the department.
The Department's brand new headquarters complex is located in Santurce on the site of an old shantytown on the banks of the Martín Peña Channel.
