Zanjan Province- Iran. Here, the descriptive methodology would be applied based upon the
case study. The Statistical population includes the physical education professors, the managers
of Physical Education departments, educated coaches and M.A students in the province. The
statistical sample encompasses 36 individuals selected totally due to limited Statistical

interviews and open as well as closed questionnaires. Having developed the closed
questionnaire, we had the validity confirmed by the professors and their reliability was
confirmed using Cronbach alpha Coefficient (a=0/94). For research findings analysis purpose,
Friedman test and group discussion were taken into account. After identifying the most
important strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats in the field of championship sport
and ranking them in the existing order, we selected most important ones through group
discussion. Based upon the internal factors evaluation matrix (2/30) and external factors
evaluation matrix (2/38), it was shown that the strategic position of the province is in WT area.
Finally, regarding the research findings, specifically, the strategic status of the province, we
