Abstract
The purpose of this research was to investigate and identify the methods of providing financial resources for sports organizations (Case study: Sport boards of Tehran province). The research method was descriptive and survey. The statistical population included members of the board of directors of sports committees, managers and experts of the General Directorate of Sports and Youth in Tehran (N=150). Sampling was done in a stratified random manner (N=112). The data was collected using a researcher-made questionnaire whose validity was confirmed. To analyze the data, after determining the normality of the data, exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis tests, structural equations and chi-square with SPSS and PLS software were used.
The results showed the adequacy of the samples to perform exploratory factor analysis and the six factors of sponsores, public, fans and stakeholders, advertise and media, facility, product and services and sports events as methods of attracting resources. In terms of the current situation, the methods of using sponsors and receiving credits from the General Directorate of Sports and Youth (public) were the most frequent. Currently, sports teams are using different methods to provide financial resources based on the conditions of their sports fields, and familiarization with the new methods proposed in the research is suggested.
