AbstractThe purpose of the current research was to design an entrepreneurship development model in the sports and youth departments of the northwest of the country. This research is descriptive-correlation and applied in terms of purpose, which was carried out in the field in 1402. The statistical population includes; There were coaches, referees and senior managers, deputy directors of sports and youth department, managers of private clubs, heads of sports teams. In this section, the formula for determining the sample size was used in stratified random sampling (n=217 people). The data collection tool was the questionnaire of Melai Kohi et al. (1402) with 118 questions. Reliability was calculated using Cronbach's alpha coefficient, which was equal to 0.85 and confirmed. To analyze the data, one-variable statistical tests, exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis were used through SPSS and SmartPLS statistical software. The findings showed that the model of entrepreneurship development in general administrations of sports and youth is suitable and all the numbers and parameters of the model have acceptable t values and factor loading and were significant at a significance level of less than 0.05. It is concluded that the entrepreneurship development model in sports organizations can be used as a practical and effective tool to increase competitiveness, entrepreneurship training, human resource empowerment, formulation of entrepreneurship strategies, development of entrepreneurship culture and attraction of financial and human resources.

Objective: The purpose of this research is to provide a model of organizational resilience in Iranian sports organizations. Methodology: This research is a type of combined research. In the qualitative part, foundation data theory with Strauss and Corbin's approach is used, and in the quantitative part, the survey method is used. The research community was university experts and senior and intermediate managers and experts with experience in the field of sports who participated in the interview process using a targeted sampling approach. With 20 people, the research reached information saturation and the theory was completed. Data analysis was done using Maxqda12 software in three stages of open coding, central coding and selective coding, and based on that, the qualitative research model was designed. Results: More than 300 initial concept codes were extracted from the interviews, which were reduced to 104 codes after refining the codes and getting credit, which are in the form of 34 concepts and 12 categories in the framework of the paradigm model, including organizational resilience as a central category and causal conditions (planning and implementation, causes political, legal reasons), background factors (economic reasons, management system), intervention conditions (social attitude, cultural reasons), strategies (financial actions, comprehensive approach) and consequences (reduction of financial losses, national and international successes, socio-cultural advantages) ) it placed. Finally, the obtained model was tested among the sports community of 384 people and after fitting the model, the final model of organizational resilience in Iranian sports organizations was obtained.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to design an interpretive structural model for managing the diversity of general physical education departments of Payam-e-Noor universities in Iran.Methodology: This research is applied in terms of purpose and sequential (quantitative qualitative) in terms of method. The statistical population of this research in the first part includes existing and available researches in valid scientific databases in the field of diversity management and in the second part is the professors, managers and employees of Payam-e-Noor physical education departments. Sampling was done by purposive method. Identification of factors by meta-combination method and determination of relationships between them has been done by interpretive structural modeling.Results: The results showed that diversity management can be classified into four levels and in this regard, social factors(legislation, social, economic and cultural status) are in the first level, organizational factors (organizational management policies and procedures) are in the second level, Group factors (working group arrangement, integration of differences, fair treatment, entry into decision-making) are in the third level and individual factors (individual characteristics, identity concern, acceptance of performance standards, self-efficacy, employee heterogeneity, working group identity, internal and external work motivation, Innovation, effectiveness and welfare) are in the fourth level.Conclusion: Employee diversity at different social, organizational, group and individual levels should be considered by policy makers and human resource managers and more focus on the potential effects of effective diversity management.

Objective: The purpose of study was influence of emotion on game satisfaction and revisit intention in winning and losing situations among football fans. Methodology: This research is a descriptive-correlational one in terms of purpose and method. The study population consisted of Persepolis and Esteghlal Tehran football teams in the 99-98 season. The sample size was estimated based on SPSS Sample Power software for each team equal to 277 people (554 people). Sampling method was available after leaving the stadium (Tehran Azadi Stadium). Structural equation modeling and Kai-square test were used to test the model. Results: Based on the Kai-Square test results, it was found that the structural relationships of win-lose situations differ in the relationship between emotions on game satisfaction and intention to return. On this basis, it can be said that win and lose situations modulate the effect of emotions on game satisfaction and return intention. Based on the results of the structural model, it was found that the effect of negative emotions on game satisfaction in the losing position (Beta coefficient=-0.676) was greater than the win position (Beta coefficient=-0/406), and the effect of positive emotions on game satisfaction in the losing position (Beta coefficient=0.145) was less than the win position (Beta coefficient=0/203), the effect of satisfaction The game of Revisit Intention in the losing position (Beta coefficient=0/460) was less than the win situation (Beta coefficient=0.720). Conclusion: Therefore, sports clubs need to enhance the emotional and emotional state of sports fans during the game by using increased subsidiary services to better promote sporting events.

Objectives: The objective of this study is to formulate a model for national champions' reluctance to sport retirement. Methodology: This research is exploratory-fundamental in terms of scope, qualitative in terms of methodology, and data-based in terms of strategy, with theoretical foundations and interviews as its data collection source. The population includes coaches, physical education masters, retired athletes and athletes. Targeted and quota sampling was conducted for exploratory interviews and the interviews with 22 people accounted for theoretical saturation. The interviews were depicted in Maxqda software for qualitative data analysis, along with open coding, axial coding and selective coding of reluctance to sport retirement, and the theory was created. Results: According to the results, 261 open codes with 21 main categories and 49 sub- categories were extracted in form of a paradigm model of factors of champions' reluctance to sport retirement including economic, individual, sport, social, management and political conditions. Conclusion: Managers, coaches and athletes' approach toward sport retirement can facilitate the development of programs to adapt individually and organizationally to sport retirement away from individual, social, economic, management and political crises. The research theory was presented along with categories on causative conditions, background factors, interventional factors, strategies and outcomes.
