Introduction: The field of women’s elite sports in Iran, despite its high potential, still faces several challenges such as structural limitations, lack of financial support, and gender inequalities. These gaps require a thorough analysis of various stakeholders and practical strategies for advancing women's elite sports. The main objective of this study is to explore and analyze different future scenarios for the development of women’s elite sports in Iran, using advanced foresight methods and scenario planning to address these gaps.
Methods: This study employed the Intuitive Logics (IL) and Critical Scenario Method (CSM) approaches. First, four different scenarios for the future of women’s elite sports were developed, and then the goals and strategies of key stakeholders, such as the government, sports federations, media, and athletes, were analyzed. Data for this research were collected through purposive sampling from 100 key stakeholders.
Results: The findings revealed that the government, as the primary stakeholder with high executive power, plays a key role in providing funding and improving sports infrastructure. Additionally, cooperation between the media and sports federations can enhance public awareness and increase family participation in supporting women's sports.
Conclusion: The final conclusion is that sustainable development of women’s elite sports in Iran requires extensive collaboration among various stakeholders and the implementation of multifaceted strategies. Focusing on attracting investments, improving infrastructure, and increasing media coverage are among the effective strategies for progress in this field.
