The statistical population included coaches, technical staff and players of the Iranian women's national youth volleyball team and some senior members of the Federation and aware people in this field. Data collection was continued until the theoretical saturation and 15 semi-structured sessions were performed. The three-step open, axial, and selective coding were exerted to analyze data method using ATLAS.TI software. Based on the results, the policies of the Federation and the Ministry of Sports as causal conditions affecting the recognition of needs, under the influence of underlying conditions such as management and infrastructure and intervention factors such as lack of attention of managers and lack of resources and facilities can ultimately lead to consequences such as the development of women's volleyball in Iran through strategies such as interacting with stakeholders and providing the necessary conditions and facilities. Improving the quality and quantity of players, as well as advancing the team, required items that meet the physical, skills, and motivational needs of female volleyball players. These conditions can affect the context of the team by identifying and carefully examining the needs of the players and related matters in the women's community, and lead to the development and progress of each player and the associated success for the team.
