Objective: The aim of this research was to design a model for constructing environmentally sustainable (green) sports stadiums.Methodology: This study is applied in nature and employs a mixed-method approach (qualitative and quantitative). Data were collected through interviews using a field-based strategy. The qualitative sample consisted of 40 individuals, including sports stadium managers and officials from the Ministry of Sports and Youth. The quantitative sample included all managers and employees of the Ministry of Sports and Youth, as well as managers and experts from the Sports Venues Development and Maintenance Company.Results: Based on the results, in the environmental sustainability factor: indicators of attention to the lack of destruction of ecosystems in the region, correct location of sports venues and spaces, and minimal air, land, and soil pollution in the design and construction of venues; in the location factor, respectively, indicators of attention to soil characteristics, attention to ground conditions in terms of appropriate slope, attention to the functional radius of the desired location; and in the aesthetic factor, respectively, indicators of harmony, form, space, environment, light, and color were identified as the most important indicators studied.Conclusion: Considering the critical role of site selection in the development of green sports facilities, it is recommended that both natural and artificial environmental factors—such as climate conditions, accessibility, weather patterns, and soil topography—be carefully evaluated in the planning and design of facilities like swimming pools. Additionally, given the significance of economic considerations in the modern era, planners and managers are encouraged to prioritize economic efficiency and sustainability. This dual focus not only addresses athletic needs but also ensures the long-term viability and optimal use of sports facilities.

Objective: Today, equitable access to land and its optimal use and location organization are essential components of sustainable development and space planning. In this regard, the purpose of this study is development of the construction and operation of sport projects in terms of land use planning using geographic information system.Methodology: The present study was a descriptive, survey and took place in the Alborz province. As a first step, the library and fuzzy Delphi methods were used to determine the most important criteria affecting the selection of sports places. In the fuzzy Delphi section, the questionnaires were distributed to 14 experts in three Delphi stages and the results led to the selection and weighting of criteria affecting the spatial land use of sports places. The second step is to determine the development situation and the needs and shortcomings of the existing sports facilities and to select the optimal areas for the construction of new sports facilities, descriptive and spatial information was collected and converted into GIS software input using Excel and AutoCAD software.Results: In the first step, the results showed that among the extracted criteria, 10 criteria were selected which were effective on sport sites locating in Alborz province and were used respectively of weight and importance. In the second step, according to the findings, most of the available sport places in Alborz province were in medium and above average spatial condition, in addition, considering the research criteria, the areas that were in very good condition were proposed for new sports projects construction.Conclusion: Overall, the results suggest suitable areas for construction of sport facilities in terms of land use on the basis of the criteria laid down in the present study. According to spatial-spatial planning, most of the sports venues in the province are in average and above-average positions, so spatial optimization can be used to further improve the current situation.
