Abstract :

The aim of the current research was to design a model of factors affecting the targeting of subsidies in sports in the country with a combined approach. This research is practical in terms of purpose, and the mixed research method is sequential exploratory. The collection method was a survey. The statistical population in the qualitative section included subsidy policymakers in the country, members of the Islamic Council, the Ministry of Sports and Youth, and professors familiar with the issue of subsidies in sports, who were selected for qualitative interviews in the research topic (15 interviews) with 15 people and continued until theoretical saturation. The statistical population of the quantitative part included all managers of sports clubs in Tehran. The data collection tool in the present study was a semi-structured interview and a researcher-made questionnaire. In order to analyze the data, coding was used in the qualitative part and the method of structural equations was used in the quantitative part. In the qualitative part of the research, categories were extracted in the form of 34 conceptual codes and 6 main categories. In the quantitative part, all 6 main categories of the research had a suitable fit. Therefore, the research model has sufficient fit. Considering that participation in sports activities has many positive effects in all aspects for the general public, it is recommended to adopt the necessary measures to target the subsidies in the country's sports.
