Purpose: The main purpose of this research is to analyze the key drivers of futsal development in the country. Considering its nature, the current research method is based on the future research approach, which is applied in terms of purpose and survey method. The statistical population of the research includes all specialists and experts who have the necessary knowledge and experience in the field of championship and professional sports and futsal sports. 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. Conclusion: The key drivers identified in this research can be effective as a guide in estimating and predicting the future of Iranian sports organizations that are related to futsal.

In terms of applied purpose, the present study was a descriptive-survey in terms of data collection method, which was mixed based on the research approach. The statistical population of the present study in the qualitative part included experts and professors in the field of sports management who had the necessary experience and knowledge about the subject of research and in the quantitative part of the research includes all male football players present in the top leagues and the Azadegan League. Each professional sports team at this level (16 teams in the Professional League and 18 teams in the Free League) has 18 players, of which a total of 612 players were selected as community. The tools of the present study included semi-structured interviews and a questionnaire (21 items and 4 components in Likert type). Open, axial and selective coding was used to examine the data of the qualitative part and structural equation modeling method was used in the quantitative part. The whole process of data analysis was performed in SPSS software version 24 and Smart PLS version 2. The results of the present study showed that various types of mass media affect the moral literacy of professional athletes.

The objective of this research is to propose a model for strategic value co-creation management in professional sports, based on the Three-Pronged Model. A qualitative method was employed to identify, consolidate, and structure the dimensions of this model. Participants were selected using a purposive sampling strategy, guided by the principle of theoretical saturation. Data collection concluded after conducting 13 semi-structured interviews with key informants. Prior to each interview, the time and location were coordinated with the participants. The interview protocol was designed according to the core research problem and the Three-Pronged Model, encompassing structural, behavioral, and contextual dimensions. Data analysis was performed using the thematic analysis approach as outlined by Creswell and Clark (2017). The analysis of the interview transcripts led to the identification of 99 basic themes. These were subsequently organized into 26 organizing themes. Finally, these organizing themes were classified into the three overarching dimensions of the Three-Pronged Model: structural, behavioral, and contextual.

The research is to investigate the function of the media in the all-round development of sports in the country. The statistical population included athletes who are members of national teams, sports business owners and sports managers. Due to the large size of the population, the number of samples was determined based on Morgan's table of 384 people and selected by simple random sampling. In order to analyze the data, structural equation method was used with the help of Smart PLS software.
The results showed that media education, media information, media culture and media-social communication are of a significant impact on the all-round development of sports in the country. According to the findings of the research, managers and people involved in the country's sports can take effective steps by using the capacity of the media for the comprehensive development of the country's sports.

The environment of professional sports is full of uncertainty; therefore, it is necessary to know the developments ahead of it. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to forecast Iran's problems in the field of professional sports using the future-research approach in the horizon of 2031. Therefore, the research method used in the present study was a prospective study. The statistical population of this study consisted of the staff managers of the ministries of sports and sports federations. The selection of these people was based on the purposeful sampling method, and 15 people were selected based on the indicators of theoretical mastery, practical experience, willingness and ability to participate in the research, as well as access to them. The information of this research was collected using interviews and questionnaires. In this research, the content validity method (CVR) was used to check the validity of the research tool, and the dichotomization method was used to check its reliability, and the correlation between the scores of the two tests was equal to r=0.823. Also, for future research, structural analysis method was used and this analysis was done with the help of MICMAC software. The findings showed that the immigration of athletes, the political confrontation of western countries, the presence of politicians and military at the head of sports, the restriction of women's presence in stadiums, Iranian athletes not confronting the athletes of the occupation regime are the most important challenges facing sports in the horizon is 2031.

The research is to study the main drivers of Iranian professional sports development in the horizon of 2035. It was inductive research from the perspective of approach; fundamental from the perspective of orientation; hybrid from the point of view of method; future research from the point of view of strategy; paradigm of complexity theory from the point of view of paradigm and it has been carried out in three steps from the point of view of time. The participants were the experts. The selection of these people was purposeful and 31 people were selected based on the criteria of expertise. Interviews and questionnaires were used to collect the data. Lincoln and Guba (1985) evaluation indices were used to audit the research which included validity, transferability, reliability and verifiability. In order to analyze the data, the coding method was used in the interview analysis section and the structural analysis method was used in the futures section with the help of MICMAC software.
The findings showed that the future of the development of professional sports in Iran is affected by 14 variables, but four variables are of government ownership in club ownership. The nature of club management, women's sports and foreign investment are the drivers that shape the future of sports. Iran's professions are undergoing changes. Therefore, the result can be found through influencing and adapting to the mentioned variables, a more active role in guiding and at the same time getting prepared and adapting to the future developments of professional sports in the horizon of 2035.
