| Purpose: Indigenous sports are physical activities and games held at the local level with the participation of community members to enhance social relationships and promote individual and collective health. In the past, these sports thrived, but today they face a significant decline. The aim of this research was to investigate the factors affecting the reduction of these activities and to propose suitable solutions for their revitalization. Methodology:This study is descriptive-analytical in nature and was conducted in a field-based, practical manner. The statistical population consisted of 200 experts and specialists in the field of indigenous and community sports, from whom 127 participants were selected using stratified random sampling. Data collection was done through a questionnaire whose validity was confirmed through a review of scientific resources and consultations with experts. The reliability of the questionnaire was tested using Cronbach's alpha (α=0.83). Findings:The data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistical methods (including Pearson’s correlation coefficient, exploratory factor analysis, and second-order confirmatory factor analysis). The results indicated that inadequate infrastructure, cultural changes, lack of governmental support, and reduced individual and social motivation were among the key reasons for the decline of indigenous sports. Conclusion:To reconstruct and strengthen indigenous sports, it is essential to identify existing obstacles and adopt appropriate measures to create the necessary conditions for more active participation in these activities. | ||
