The study is to determine the productivity of Iranian sport federations in the championship category which was conducted through a research project under the influence of limited time domain as a research design guide and using a researcher-made questionnaire. Also, in the structuring stage of the tool, with emphasis on content validity, the qualitative method of exploratory interview with the table of thought was utilized by using the wisdom of the head of female sports federations. The content validity, formality, appearance and scale of the questionnaire were verified and confirmed. The reliability of the questionnaire was also tested using Cronbach's alpha and with a coefficient of 0/96, a desirable coefficient of reliability was obtained. The statistical population of the study consisted of senior managers of Iran's Olympic federations, which given a limited number, managers of all federations (26) were considered as a statistical sample as a whole. To analyze the data, t-test of two correlated groups (in order to compare productivity indices) and intensity of effect (in order to evaluate productivity) were used. The results showed that there is a significant difference between the theoretical mean and the observed mean of different aspects of the productivity of Olympic federations in the heroic aspect and in the financial, material and human components (p <0/01) and the productivity of these federations is lower than the average or expected. According to the findings, the authorities and sports caretakers of the country have to do sports improvement and improve the athletic sport, develop appropriate strategies and promote sports championship in the country in different fields with their national supervision.
