Objective: The purpose of this study was to survey the geographical location of sport facilities of Rasht by using GIS system. Methodology: This is a descriptive- analytical study. The statistical sample was all sports facilities in Rasht, including 148 public and private sport facilities. The Descriptive data was collected through GPS instrument in GIS information basis by using records, documents and research data and field studies. Then, for each of the indicators which influenced the positioning of sport facilities, the layers were prepared. After composing and analyzing all the layers with each other, the current position of sport facilities were evaluated and finally the most appropriate locations were proposed by using AHP. Results: The results of study showed that from 148 sport facilities, 26 cases did not regarding one, two or three boundary rules (river, gas pipes and power transmission lines), which was equivalent 18 percent of all sports facilities in Rasht. Also 122 places, equivalent to 82 percent, regard the boundary rules. In terms of practical radius, few of the facilities followed the expected standards. Also in terms of population density, distribution of large sport facilities comparing to small and medium size, were unsuitable. Conclusion: The final results which inferred from this study showed that most of the sport places regarding space in the restricted area have unsuitable conditions; however a few cases are appropriate. This is because of the non-using of new and computerize ways in finding places by sport managers.

AbstractObjective: The purpose of this study was to survey Physical Education (P.E) lesson preferences among other secondary school courses.Methodology: The present study’s population was all of the girls and boys who attended middle schools of Rasht (20776) and their parents. The sample of the study were 400 students (191 boys and 209 girls) and 400 parents who were selected randomly. The instrument was a researcher-made questionnaire including 70 questions that decreased to 30 questions after interviewing and applying expert opinions of 10 university professors and 10 experienced teachers. Cronbach’s Alpha coefficient was used to test the reliability of this study (α = 0.75). The data were analyzed by the UMann-Whitney, the Wilcoxon, the Friedman, and the Spearman correlation coefficient test at the level of p≤ 0.05.Results: The results showed that students and parents ranked P.E in sixth and seventh order, respectively. Male and female students ranked P.E in fourth and sixth order, respectively. There was no significant difference in P.E status between students and parents perspective; however, there was significant difference between male and female student’s opinions. Also, there was no significant difference in P.E status among different grades.Conclusion: Physical education lesson has partly weak situation among other subjects from parents and girls students’ perspective; it is necessary to explain P.E plans and goals for parents and provide appropriate and enjoyable environment without pressure and with fun activities according to the wishes and interests of girl students.Keywords: Subject preferences, Pupil choices, Physical education status.
