From other studies, new results were combined to identify the effective factors in the management of sports fans. To evaluate the quality of the initial studies, the CASP Critical Assessment Skills Program, which is a tool in qualitative research, was used to ensure the quality of the research findings. Based on this, these factors were analyzed and categorized into 9 categories, 14 concepts and 55 indicators. Managerial, political, cultural-social, sociological, economic, infrastructure, technical, security and communication categories were identified.
