Adventure sports have experienced significant growth worldwide, including in Iran, over recent decades. The purpose of the current research was to identify the factors affecting Adventure sports in Iran. This research utilized the fuzzy Delphi method to gather expert opinions, Interpretive Structural Modeling (ISM) to classify components and create a hierarchical model, and MICMAC analysis to determine the influence and dependence of each factor. All specialists and experts in the field of Adventure sports were the research community. 16 people participating in the research were selected through the purposeful and criteria-based sampling method. The results and findings indicated that at the sixth level of the model, "participation and presence at the international level" is recognized as an important influencing factor with high driving power. At the fifth level, "comprehensive and widespread support for athletes" was identified as another critical independent factor crucial for the development of infrastructure, training, and inclusive participation. At the fourth level, "economic and financial support" was identified. The factors at the third level, which include "improvement of sports facilities," "integration of development procedures," and "talent search and training system of athletes," were placed in the link cluster, demonstrating their strong interdependence and significant impact on the system. Lower-level factors, such as "taking advantage of scientific findings," "establishing and increasing participation," and "educational supplies and supports," were important but more dependent on the effectiveness of higher-level factors. Overall, the findings recommend a balanced and integrated approach focused on financial support and strategic integration of development procedures.

The study is to study the performance of sport activities in the provinces of Iran through an analytical and developmental approach. So it considers the comparative nature of sporting input and output in Iran provinces. Accordingly, we used indicators of the number of sports complexes, swimming pool, active coach and training courses as input indicators and index of the number of athletes in the national team as an output indicator (as an effective communication with development), and have been analyzed with the application of the method of Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) through WinDEAP software.
The results show that the provinces of Tehran, West Azarbaijan, Fars, Mazandaran and Hamedan have a good performance (compared to other provinces) in the sports industry and are considered as the reference provinces (representatives) for other provinces, while other provinces of the country are below the efficient border. In this case, the least performance is related to the provinces of South Khorasan, North Khorasan and Kurdistan, respectively.
Also, the most sensitive indicator in this section is the number of athletes who are members of the national team of each province, which has been used as the benchmark for research.
Also Despite the fact that in areas (such as Isfahan) sports development is gaining in sport by expanding the infrastructure, the sustainable development of this category depends on the cost-benefit of the sports industry and this will be done by investing in sport infrastructure in the five most effective provinces.
