The main purpose of this study was to identify the effective factors of sports entrepreneurship in Iran. The type of research was fundamental and qualitative. The statistical population consisted of 16 different experts. Sampling was performed using purposive sampling method. To collect data in this study, theoretical foundations were used first and because the topics were not enough, semi-structured interviews were used. In this study, qualitative analysis approaches including open, axial and selective coding were used to analyze the research findings. The results of open coding indicated that 110 initial codes were obtained from the analysis of interviews and documents. The results of axial coding showed that 15 categories were obtained from this coding. Finally, the findings of selective coding included 4 concepts (inhibitory factors, facilitating factors, developmental factors and consequences). The results of the codings showed that the sports entrepreneurship program in Iran is based on various factors. Therefore, when the mechanism of action of these factors is properly identified and diagnosed, we can see the growth and development of sports entrepreneurship program in Iran. Considering these cases, a bright future can be imagined for the sports entrepreneurship program in Iran. Since, from the experts' point of view, the lack of communication between universities and production and industrial centers is considered as one of the important factors. It is suggested that the necessary measures be taken to establish a favorable relationship between the university and industry through the proper education of students in accordance with the needs of industry.

The sample in the qualitative section was sports management faculty members (7 people), the text and film related to Knowledge-based company (7 documents). Targeted sampling method was used since reaching theoretical saturation. In the quantitative section, the statistical population included graduated students in sport sciences and 110 people were selected as samples. in the qualitative section Grounded Theory Strategy was used by MAXQDA software in three sections: open coding, axial coding and selective coding. Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) with the approach of partial least square method (PLS) and Smart PLS software were used. The results showed that the saturation point varies in the qualitative sample of 63 initial codes, 6 dimensions (barriers, drivers, sports industry capacities, sports entrepreneurship sectors, knowledge-based sports entrepreneurship, outcomes), and one core code (establishing a sports knowledge-based company) and there are 127 total abundances and 106 abnormalities of interviewing.

Data gathering tools were two researcher made questionnaires in entrepreneurship (Cronbach's Alpha= 0.82) and leadership styles (Cronbach's Alpha= 0.74) which their validity was approved by physical education faculty members. SPSS 18 statistical package was used for descriptive analysis, and LISREL software leveraged for Confirmatory Factor Analysis and Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). Results of inferential statistics and SEM showed that path coefficient of leadership style on entrepreneurship (0.43) was significant (t value= 5.89). Coefficient of participatory leadership style was (0.82) more than consolatory style (0.45) and both styles were significant (t>1.96). For entrepreneurship variable, "ingenious and devise", "need for success" and "employee's team work" had greatest factor loadings. So, it can be said that managers with participatory and consolatory leadership styles can have entrepreneur employees.
