Given the importance of voluntary sports services and its declining trend, strengthening the motivation of volunteer manpower is one of the key trends in the development of this issue in society because volunteer sources are an important set of human resources in sports organizations. Therefore, the aim of this study is to identify the factors affecting the motivation of voluntary public sports services and local sports events using causal layer analysis. For this goal, after reviewing the research literature, in the first step, with the CLA method, these effective factors were examined at four levels and based on this, the questionnaire was prepared and distributed. According to the research findings, the internal factors affecting the motivation of voluntary services are: creating inner peace, the need to gain friendship, religious beliefs, growth and meeting the need for success, and having a more favorable mental and physical condition; External factors were prioritized: organizational behavior, media and propaganda, incentives, participation and teamwork, and the role of government and parliament, respectively. Also, in general, the effect of external factors was more than internal factors. According to the research findings, in order to better implement voluntary sports services in the future, organizations should pay special attention to external factors affecting the motivation of voluntary services such as incentives, organizational behavior, etc.
