The purpose was to develop a conceptual framework for managing the effects of the country's economic crisis on the field of sports. The research method was qualitative with a systematic exploratory approach. The statistical population consisted of two sections: human resources (professors, managers and analysts) and information resources (books, articles, documents, media, etc.). Sampling was done in a sufficient number and by judgmental method based on theoretical saturation (21 people and 65 documents). Research tools included systematic library study and structured exploratory interviews. The validity of the instrument was evaluated and confirmed based on the legal and scientific validity of the sample, the opinion of experts and the agreement between the correctors. In order to analyze the findings, a multi-stage conceptual coding method with a system analysis approach was used. The extracted conceptual framework consisted of 2 general levels, 11 perspectives, 38 dimensions and 138 key components. The level of effects of the economic crisis on sport included four perspectives: the effect on the overall sports system, the effect on the resources of sports development, the effect on the levels of sports development and the effect on the sports industry. The level of management of the effects of the economic crisis on sport also included seven perspectives of strategic integration of crisis management, social capacity building, knowledge capacity building, resource capacity building, and economic efficiency, leading the sports industry and its consequences and functions.
