The goal of this study was to conduct scenario-based future studies of the advancement of equestrian sports in the horizon of 2031 using a scenario writing approach. This research involved both qualitative and quantitative data collection methods and employed a strategic future study approach. Participants in this research were experts in the field of equestrian sports. In the qualitative section, purposive sampling was utilized, and 25 interviews were conducted based on theoretical saturation. In the quantitative section, sampling was criterion-based, and 10 out of the 25 participants from the first stage were selected as a strategic council for further work based on criteria chosen by the research group. Data collection tools included semi-structured interviews and matrices with dimensions of 38×38 and 9×9, the validity and reliability of which were confirmed. Qualitative data analysis utilized thematic analysis, while structural analysis and scenario writing were employed for quantitative data analysis. The findings indicated the existence of 4 uncertainties, represented by a total of 38 influential internal and external forces on equestrian sports. These uncertainties include "horse tourism," "female equestrianism," "increase in horse imports and decrease in exports," and "emerging technologies," which form the basis of 2 scenarios: "leaping out of isolation" and "the deadlock." Understanding the narratives of each scenario and comparing their desirability can serve as a basis for designing future equestrian sports activities to help maintain Iran's competitive edge in a flexible and responsive manner.

When relationship marketing is used as a framework for the use of social media, it should also be used to guide the evaluation of the use of these media. The purpose of this article is to re-examine a model for measuring the interaction of fans through social media with their favorite sports team in the quality of relationships, purchase intention and referral intention. The current research is applied in terms of its purpose, and in terms of method, it is descriptive and analytical. It is also limited in terms of information gathering. After distributing the questionnaire among professional sports fans and completing it through social networks, the data was analyzed using structural equation modeling. The sample size was 259 people. The results indicate that the more the fan interacts with his favorite team on social media, the quality of the relationship will increase. There was no significant effect on purchase intention and referral intention. In addition, the indirect effect of social media interaction on purchase intention and referral intention through relational marketing was positive and significant. Based on the results, it seems that relationship marketing can be used as a framework to evaluate the effectiveness of social media marketing in sports, and as suggested by relationship marketing theory, interaction It improves the relationship between fans and teams through social media. Researchers can continue to investigate this model by adding other variables to gain a more complete understanding of the effectiveness of social media marketing.

The qualitative research method employed thematic analysis, employing a comparative approach and the creation of a thematic network. The study encompassed literature review and semi-structured interviews with 15 experts in marketing, manufacturing, government management, academia, and professional gaming, all grounded in the RACE marketing model, until reaching theoretical saturation. For the "increasing brand awareness" theme, six interconnected elements emerged, including advertising and promotion content, promotion processes, promotion platforms, branding strategies, successful branding techniques, and essential supporting infrastructure. In the "audience interaction with the brand" theme, four integrated components were identified: product introduction appeal, gameplay platform attractiveness, game process engagement, and effective support and logistics.For "attracting potential audiences," five unified themes were recognized: game structure, domain-specific advertising, management prerequisites, game economics, and ensuring game security. In the "increasing customer relationship development" theme, six integrated elements surfaced: product and service quality, addressing customer needs, extensive advertising efforts, efficient communication channels, value chain integration within the game, and maintaining game security. Additionally, a thematic network was illustrated based on the RACE marketing model. The study recommends that Iranian digital game managers, producers, and marketers focus on all identified factors concurrently. The results underwent scrutiny for acceptance, transferability, and validity through scientific evaluation methods.

Open government data is a new issue that is on the agenda of international institutions and developed governments and seeks to use the capacity of the people in policy-making. Achieving this requires identifying the status quo, explaining the status quo, and analyzing the gap between the status quo and the status quo. One of the important areas that require the use of open data is the field of Iranian championship sports, which in previous research has been limited to this area, so the present study aimed to design a paradigm model of factors affecting open government data policy in the Iranian sports industry.

The statistical population of the study includes faculty members, policy makers and sports decision makers in the country at the macro level and sampling was done using the snowball method and finally occurred with 15 theoretical saturation interviews. Data collection tools included semi-structured interviews and coding and data theory theory method were used to analyze specialized interviews.
