Abstract

The current research was carried out with the aim of explaining and presenting the discourse pattern of vandalism in the Iranian football league in 1400 (with emphasis on the popular teams Esteghlal, Persepolis, Tractor and Sepahan). The research method is applied in terms of purpose and exploratory in terms of implementation method, which was done qualitatively to develop a conceptual model. The participants in this section included club managers who were selected by purposeful sampling. The data collection tool included a semi-structured interview. Data analysis was done using the three stages of coding of the ground theory method, including open, central and selective coding. The obtained results led to the presentation of vandalism measures, and thus the conceptual model of vandalism measures was presented, which includes: central category (vandalism measures), causal conditions (management and social factors), intervening conditions (improving environmental conditions and political behaviors), background conditions (amending club statements, paying attention to media and virtual bases), strategy (control strategy) and consequences (smartening the environment and suitable facilities).
