Purpose: This paper aims at investigating the content of qualitative-based research on sport management published in scientific research journals indexed in the Islamic World Citation Database.Methodology: 166 qualitative articles published in scientific research journals approved by the Ministry of Science during the years 1390 to 1399 were analyzed. We use a coding checklist whose validity is confirmed by sports management experts. Also, the reliability of the checklist was obtained using the agreement coefficient between the coders of 88.50%.Finding: findings of this work demonstrate that majority of the articles employ the grounded theory(66/8%). furthermore, semi-structured interviews(56/6%) appear to be the most popular data collection method., purposive sampling(29/5%) open, axial, and selective coding(82/5%) seem to be the most popular ones. Also, in many of articles(41%), no data triangulation is reported. In addition, only in ten percent of cases, present suggestions and recommendation for future researchers.Conclusion: In recent years, an increasing trend for qualitative-based research in the sport management literature has been observed. Therefore, by highlighting the weaknesses and limitations of qualitative studies, solutions to improve future studies have been proposed.
