This qualitative study was conducted through semi-structured interviews with 16 people including professors and experts who were selected by targeted sampling method. The state-of-the-art method was previous research articles and open interviews.To examine the face and content validity, they presented robust findings to their clients and analyzed their findings and their views. In order to assess validity, transferability, and verifiability, they presented strong findings to the participants and tested their theory and their opinions. The method used for reliability was the in-house agreement method. The mean of intra-subject agreement was reported to be 0.88. According to the findings, there were 43 open source codes that were categorized into 14 concepts. The concepts were grouped into five main indicators. Environmental, managerial and land use planning issues were identified as challenges for the growth and development of championship sport based on land use planning. Establishing  R&D system and support strategies are effective strategies for enhancing championship-based sport. Finally, it should be noted that in order to achieve the development of championship sport based on land planning, different indicators should be considered and development of championship sport should be planned based on land prepration.
