The study is to assess the level of organizational strategic intelligence in the Ministry of Sport and Youth. The purpose was practical and based on the data collection method, it was a descriptive survey. The research population was the staff of the Ministry of Sport and Youth (about 800 people). Using the Morgan table, the sample size was 260. In addition, available or contingent non-probability sampling was used to collect the data. In this study, according to the approach and type of research variables, Hosseini et al (2012) questionnaire was used for data collection. The questionnaire was designed by the authors based on previous research on the concept of strategic intelligence. The reliability of the questionnaire was 0/847 and its content and construct validity were confirmed.
The findings showed that the level of strategic intelligence in the Ministry of Sport and Youth was above average. It was also found that the level of extracurricular and intra-organizational intelligence and their components in the Ministry of Sport and Youth were above average.
Accordingly, it is suggested that the Ministry of Sports and Youth implement this program, i.e. Strategic Intelligence in other affiliated organizations, identify and strengthen its strengths and weaknesses in the field of strategic intelligence in order to analyze and improve its information analytics and increase its efficiency and effectiveness.

Striving for social responsibility helps sports clubs have a positive impact on progress, work, and society. The study is to design a model of social responsibility for Tehran's Esteghlal sport club. This research was conducted with the aim of expanding the knowledge and understanding of the phenomenon of responsibility of the Independence Club. This research is also of qualitative nature based on the data search. The statistical population of the study included experts (managers and practitioners of Esteghlal Sport and Cultural Club and faculty members). Purposeful sampling and snowball sampling techniques were used for in-depth interviews. A total of 11 interviews were conducted with experts. In fact, the sampling continued to the point (11 interviews) until the theoretical saturation was sufficient. After studying the theoretical foundations, the raw data were obtained from in-depth interviews with elites and experts and analyzed simultaneously with the interviews and based on the qualitative content analysis approach with the inductive approach. To determine the reliability of the data (which is equivalent to reliability and validity in quantitative research), two transcoding methods used by other researchers and members of the review.
The results showed that the main areas of social responsibility of Esteghlal Club included economic, transparency, cultural, ethical, legal, benevolent, environmental and scientific responsibilities. The challenges of the Esteghlal Club in the area of social responsibility are structural, behavioral and contextual barriers. Social responsibility strategies for Esteghlal were in two basic strategies or with macro level and operational strategies. Eventually, the main implications for the role of the Independent Club's social responsibility include the business consequences and the behavioral consequences. On this basis, it can be said that sports clubs focusing on social responsibility can promote social benefits beyond the interests of the club and what the law requires.
