Abstract :
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the environment and determine the position of the Judo Federation with a strategic approach. The research method is descriptive and applied in terms of purpose, and data collection was performed in a mixed field (quantitative and qualitative). The statistical population of the research in the quantitative part included 70 officials of the federation and provincial judo delegations and managers of national league clubs and in the qualitative part, 12 experts. Due to the limitations of the members of the statistical community, the statistical sample was equal to the community. The research information was collected from upstream documents, background literature, questionnaires and expert opinions, and was summarized and finalized in the Steering Council. The research instrument was a researcher-made questionnaire whose content validity was confirmed by 10 university professors and its reliability was confirmed by using Cronbach's alpha calculation (α = 0.86). The results showed that in the Judo Federation, there are 7 strengths, 9 weaknesses, 9 opportunities and 8 threats. According to the findings, the total final scores of the Judo Federation Internal Factors Evaluation Matrix were 2.63 and the total final scores of the External Factors Evaluation Matrix were 2.68 and the offensive strategic position was obtained. The authorities should take the necessary steps to increase the development measures of judo by exploiting the strengths and using the opportunities in a timely manner, while eliminating the weaknesses and reducing the effects of the threats.
