The sampling method in this research is the snowball method. 12 interviews were conducted with experts. According to the nature of the subject, techniques and tools such as interviews, expert panels and questionnaires were used. After determining the indicators and components affecting the country's futsal development, using the Delphi model and designed questionnaires, the cross-effects analysis matrix was redistributed among the statistical sample. Techniques such as Delphi, cross-effects analysis, structural analysis and Mic Mac software were used in data processing to understand the key drivers of futsal development in the country. Findings: 34 factors affecting the development of futsal in the country were identified. Using the structural analysis method (cross effects) and the use of Mic Mac software, the position of each factor in the obtained system was determined, and 8 drivers were identified as the most key future-making variables in the development of futsal in the country.

The sampling method was targeted sampling and based on theoretical saturation, 20 people were selected. Interviews and questionnaires were used to collect data and Lincoln and Gaba (1985) criteria were used for its audit, which included validity, transferability, reliability and verifiability. In order to analyze the data in the interview analysis section, the coding method was used. The fuzzy Delphi method was used to screen the indicators, and the structural analysis method was used in the future research section with the help of Micmac software. By analyzing the interviews, 156 initial concepts were gathered into 75 final concepts and 3 main categories: general environment, operational (specialized) environment and internal environment. Then, 36 effective factors were identified through fuzzy Delphi screening. Finally, it was determined that the growth of 5G technology, the general acceptance of e-sports, the increase in demand for e-sports, the legitimacy of e-sports, and the e-sports league are the five driving forces that make possible alternatives for the future of e-sports businesses.
