Abstract
The growth of Kabaddi sports, its development and progress, requires the ability to anticipate uncertainties. As a developing sport in Iran, kabaddi has seen a lot of progress, but at the same time, challenges may still affect its future, especially since there is limited understanding about its possible future and the ways in which There is a corresponding future to be traversed. Therefore, in this study, a multi-stakeholder scenario planning was used to develop future scenarios of Iran's Kabaddi sports, using stakeholders' points of view on the trends and critical uncertainties that may shape the future of Kabaddi sports to create action-oriented strategies. The participants of the present analytical and exploratory study included 28 domestic and foreign beneficiaries of Iran's Kabaddi sports, who were selected based on targeted sampling. Data was collected through interviews and open questionnaires. Data analysis was done with the six-step model of combined scenario planning of Lipzig and Rollandberger. The findings and analysis of 29 main factors obtained led to the production of two key uncertainties and four scenarios with titles of champion, super league, active lifestyle and always loser. In order to develop Kabaddi sports in Iran, there should be a transformation in the structure of the process with the aim of institutionalizing Kabaddi sports in geographical dimensions with a professional and universal approach.

Abstract
The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of inducing positive stereotypes on perceived competence, interest and motor learning in adolescent girls. Therefore, among all of the adolescent girls in Shiraz, 30 adolescent with the age range of 10-13 years were selected by convenience sampling. Participants performed 10 trials as a pre-test and afterward, they were randomly divided into two groups . The acquisition phase consisted of 50 trials (5 blocks of 10 trials), and the task required participants to perform inside kicks at targets area attached to a wall and touching the ground. Twenty-four hours after the acquisition phase, participants attended retention test (with 10 trials) to check learning effects on them. The participants were asked to answer the questions related to perceived competence and interest before pre-test, after the acquisition phase, and before the retention test. To analyzing data, one way and Mix ANOVAs analysis and Independent T test were conducted using SPSS21 at significance level P≤0.05. The results showed that in the acquisition phase, all groups significantly increased their accuracy, though difference among groups was not significant. Also, the results showed that the induction of positive stereotypes led to higher perceived competence and motor learning in adolescent girls

Abstract
The aim of this study was to comparison of the effectiveness of linear and non-linear pedagogy on locomotor motor skills Performance and movement motivation in children with developmental coordination disorder. The statistical population was all children with developmental coordination disorder in Urmia. The statistical sample consisted of 30 boys (age = 9.35 ± 1.37) who were selected from Urmia schools using the available method. MABC-2 test was used to diagnose developmental coordination disorder, TGMD- test was used to evaluate locomotor skills, and motor motivation test was used to evaluate movement motivation. To carry out this study, the participants practiced two 50-minute sessions of motor skills interventions in two linear methods (15 people) and task manipulation (15 people) for eight weeks. Variables were measured before and after the interventions. The results of covariance analysis showed that non-linear training compared to linear training significantly improved both in movement skills (p=0.04) and motor motivation (p=0.000) than the linear group. According to these results, non-linear methods considering the individual characteristics of each child are helpful for helping children with movement disorders. Considering the unique characteristics of each child helps to improve motor skills and to have enough motivation to continue the activity. Therefore, the use of non-linear methods is suggested for children with developmental coordination disorder.

Abstract
Objective:The purpose of the study was to investigate the effect of gender stereotype induction on girls' agility performance in the presence of secondary cognitive task. Method: 14 students studying in a physical education technical and vocational school participated in the study. Participants performed the hexagonal agility task in four different research contexts with a 20-minute time interval between each context. Findings: The results of ANOVA with repeated measures showed a significant difference between the different research contexts. By presenting the secondary task, the level of perceived difficulty increased and it decreased with the induction of stereotypes, and in accordance with the level of perceived difficulty, agility performance had a significant positive change compared to other contexts (P<0.001). Conclusion: The results of the research showed that inducing gender stereotypes improves performance and presenting secondary tasks disrupts performance. It was also found that the induction of positive stereotype moderates the destructive effects of the secondary task. According to the results of the present research, gender stereotyping can moderate the dysfunction caused by the presentation of the secondary task in competitive and sensitive contexts. Educators can use positive gender stereotype induction to eliminate the harmful effects of the secondary task.

Abstract
Purpose: This study identified and explained the factors affecting the dynamics of sports businesses in the post-corona era based on the structural interpretation model.
Method: The method of data analysis was divided into three stages. First, in the fuzzy Delphi method, with the opinion of twenty-six relevant experts, the most important factors affecting the dynamics of businesses were confirmed. Then Interpretive Structural Modeling (ISM) was used to classify components and create a hierarchical model. Mick Mac analysis was also used to determine how the factors were interrelated.
Findings: This study identified 14 strategies related to the dynamics of sports businesses in Iran. The model that was developed has five levels. Also, Mick Mac analysis showed that there were five independent variables, two dependent variables and seven link variables.
Conclusion: This study shows that the development of dynamic capabilities in sports organizations requires legal revision and improvement of governance performance. In addition, sports organizations must use digital technology, employee empowerment and comprehensive collaboration between different bodies to advance their capabilities.

The aim of the current research was to provide a work-life balance model for working women with an emphasis on improving the quality of free time. The current research was interpretative, applied and qualitative based on thematic analysis method. The statistical population was sports management professors and leisure experts who were interviewed with 17 people using the snowball method and according to information saturation. The measurement tool included a semi-structured interview and data were analyzed according to the six stages of thematic analysis. The results showed that the work-life balance model for working women with an emphasis on improving the quality of leisure time has three dimensions of effective factors (cultural factors, inhibiting factors, motivational factors, facilities and equipment, the level of knowledge, the characteristics of physical activities in the leisure time program, financial issues, management issues and cultural issues), strategies (educational, managerial and financial strategies) and consequences (increasing vitality, increasing health, economic development and sustainable socio-cultural development). Managers should pay attention to educational and management issues and by privatization, proper budget allocation and incentive packages, they should contribute to the prosperity of free time as much as possible and to balance the work and life issues of working women.
