Abstract
The present study aimed to evaluate the effect of teaching games for understanding approach (TGfU) on aerobic endurance, enhancing motor performance and promoting physical activity. To this end, the ten-year-old (mean age=10.2 years, SD 0.7) students in two fourth-grade classes at a school in Sirjan were randomly divided into control and experimental group (N= 22 for each group). First, all participants were given Canadian Agility and Movement Skills Assessment (CAMSA) and Pacer test were taken and their level of physical activity was measured and recorded with a pedometer. The students in the experimental group participated in an intervention program for 36 sessions each for 45 minutes. The participants in the control group followed the usual program. Finally in the end of the intervention, the-second-time- performed tests were given to both groups. Mann-Whitney U test and “Poisson regression analysis” by using GEE method" was used to data analyze. Finally, the same tests were performed after intervention program for both groups. Results indicated that, this approach can play a significant role on agility and movement skills and level of physical activity, while no significant difference was observed on aerobic endurance. The results support the hypothesis that the use of TGfU approach can be effective in facilitating the development of motor performance and improving the level of physical activity among children.

Abstract
This paper attempts to link social constructivism with future research by focusing on which, and to present a short-range theory in constructing the possible future of Iranian educational sport in this process, using the constructivist approach of the basic theory. The growth of educational sports is beginning of the development of sports. The data of this qualitative research had an exploratory-fundamental nature, and was collected through purposive sampling using snowball technique and based on in-depth semi-structured interviews with 22 experts in the field of educational sports. Accurate interpretive understanding and initial, focused, pivotal and theoretical coding showed that educational sport can achieve its desired future and set a vision for which, based on the requirements of future shaping, overcoming the past weight, present pressure and in line with future traction and choosing proactive behavior in the face of the future. Also, for participation in the student and university sports, two construction strategies were presented separately. As a result, a basic theory derived from the data, entitled "The planned future of Iranian educational sports" was explained.

Abstract
Using the general strategy map as a model or copying the strategy map of other countries has endangered the life of educational sport, this issue has caused the lack of accurate information about the capabilities and strategic goals of educational sports management, so in the present study The capabilities and strategic goals of educational sports management have been identified based on a balanced scorecard. The research method was qualitative content analysis. The statistical population included experts in the field of sports management and those in charge of educational sports. Sampling was continued purposefully until data saturation. The data collection process consisted of 12 semi-structured interviews and review of documents related to educational sports. In order to evaluate the quality and validity of the research results, Lincoln and Guba (1985) evaluation criteria including validity, transfer, reliability and verification criteria were considered. Data analysis was performed simultaneously with data collection and qualitative content analysis. In the open coding phase, 105 concepts, 18 sub-categories and finally 6 main categories (internal processes, customer, learning and growth, finance, employee satisfaction, environment and community) were extracted. According to the research findings, it seems that the mentioned processes are effective in explaining the comprehensive management system and improving the performance of educational sports by understanding its requirements and requirements.

Abstract
The main purpose of this study was to Designing a model to stimulate demand for sports in Iranian society. In so doing, a sequential exploratory mixed methods research was used. Thus, the data were collected in two phases: In the qualitative section, using the grounded theory method, through a semistructured with 16 managers and university experts, the data were collected and obtained using the Strauss and Corbin systematic design with MAXQDA, demand stimulation codes and components. The questionnaire was designed based on the findings from the qualitative stage. In order to validate the model, the newly developed questionnaire was administered through the participation of 384 managers, experts and athletes of the entire Iranian community and showed the research findings. The highest predictor of demand stimulation model is related to process strategy with a value of 0.78 and the lowest percentage is related to the axial phenomenon with a value of 0.51. Also the validity of the research model, Structural equations were measured through the model indices, the results of which indicated an acceptable fit for all the mentioned indices.

Abstract
Aim: The purpose of this foresight of Iran's educational sports with a balanced scorecard approach was in the horizon of 2035. The current research was of mixed type (qualitative-quantitative) and its design was of sequential exploratory type.
Methods: The participants of this research were educational sports experts. The sampling method was snowball and based on theoretical saturation, 12 people were selected. Interviews and questionnaires were used to collect data and Lincoln & Guba (1985) criteria were used for its audit, which included validity, transferability, reliability and verifiability. In order to analyze the data in the interview analysis section, the coding method was used, the fuzzy Delphi method was used to screen the indicators and the structural analysis and scenario writing method was used in the future research section.
Result: By analyzing the interviews, 150 effective factors on the future of Iran's educational sports were identified based on the balanced scorecard, and by combining the primary codes in the secondary coding stage, these factors were reduced to 105. Then, in the axial coding stage, 18 subcategories based on 6 aspects of the balanced scorecard were formed by aggregating the final concepts adapted from the interview text, and the results of the Delphi analysis showed that the calculated factors correctly explain the desired phenomenon. Finally, based on the findings, 4 key drivers of efficient management, increase in audience satisfaction, development of information capital, and socialization of educational sports were obtained, which are the basis of the two main scenarios of transformation and fruitless willfulness.
Conclusion: As a result, it is suggested that in order to develop educational sports in Iran, synergy and efficient management, increase audience satisfaction, development of information resources, and socialization of educational sports should be implemented.

Abstract
To remain competitive in the sports industry, enhancing brand equity has become a vital issue for private sports clubs. Therefore, understanding the causal relations determining factors for enhancing the brand equity of private sports clubs are of great importance. The research method employed in this study is a mixed (quCausaltative and quantitative) approach. The quCausaltative part follows the grounded theory approach, while the quantitative part involves interpretive structural modeling. The participants in this research were marketing and sports marketing professionals and experts. Purposive sampling was used, resulting in a sample size of 15 individuals. The data collection instrument for the quCausaltative part was semi-structured interviews, and for the quantitative part, a 10×10 matrix was used.The quCausaltative data analysis was conducted through three stages of open, selective, and theoretical coding, while the quantitative data analysis involved interpretive structural modeling and MICMAC analysis. The findings revealed 10 main factors related to enhancing the brand equity of private sports clubs.
