The research method is a descriptive survey of which the required data were collected through a questionnaire. The questionnaire from the research background (Morton, Chang velin, 2010) was used with 24 questions in the 5 Likert option spectrums. Data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics and statistically significant (P ≤ 0.05). The results of exploratory factor analysis showed that 5 factors had the ability to identify, and in total, 65.04% of the marketing variance explained the psychology of color.Also, due to the explained contribution of variance for each of the factors, the mental factors, psychological sensation, detection power, penetration power and color personality were the highest priority respectively. According to the analysis of the findings, the importance of marketing and customer attraction for the clubs, in particular the consideration of the psychological principles of color indicates the need to recognize the factors that influence the design of spaces and sports facilities.This review could have a positive and different impact on customer acquisition in fitness and aerobics clubs.Understanding colors and paying attention to the impact on people can be a new way of marketing and attract customers and be particularly welcomed by customers.On the other hand, advertising and creating psychological attitudes can create a peripheral color with the relaxation or attractiveness of the corresponding sports field in that club.

Data and statistical information related to the GDP in the 21 years from the Central Bank site and the data related to industrial workshops on the production of sports goods were extracted from the results of surveys from industrial workshops of the country which published by the Statistics Centre of Iran during those years. Data analysis was performed using the 9th version of Eviows software using econometric method and ordinary least squares model. The results indicated that investing in sports goods manufacturing workshops had a negative and significant effect on the GDP of the country.

Supply chain management involves management of the complete process of providing goods and services for the final consumer. Today, the competitive global environment and the need to increase market share have complicated the decision-making process for managers of sports clubs. As service providers, sports clubs supplying a wide range of quality services quickly and at a low cost require the implementation of supply chain management. Optimal supply chain management services at sports clubs can be used effectively to increase productivity, value creation and customer satisfaction, upgrade service, increase efficiency, effectiveness, and turnover, and promote goal orientation and agility in supply chain management in sports. The first and most important step in this regard is identifying relevant supply chain management indicators. The current study examined a sample population consisting of 80 managers of the sports clubs in Kurdistan Province, who were selected based on criterion sampling. The research tool was a 34-question supply chain management questionnaire based on the scale developed by Ellram et al. (2004). In order to analyze the data and rank the indices, a multi criteria decision-making method was used in conjunction with the FUZZY TOPSIS Solver 2013 statistical software. The most important indicators included customer satisfaction, sponsor attraction, and service delivery capability; least important was the evaluation of suppliers.

Accordingly, 19 total indices were compiled and given to 20 research experts in this field in the form of a questionnaire in two parts. In the first part, the indices were determined in 4 prospects of balanced scorecards and in the second part, they were designed in a 5-scale phase spectrum to clarify the importance of each index. Those indices present in the processes of the internal prospective, growth, and learning, were regarded as the empowerments (model`s input), determined indices and customer and financial prospects as the results (model`s output). Instrument validity was carried out based on the agreement with Lawshe`s model. After implementing BSC-DEA model, taekwondo, karate, chess, track and field boards respectively received the highest rank based on their effectiveness. Paralleled evaluation as well as maintenance of the balance between BSC prospect, the linear model, having a holistic view, model flexibility, and high separation ability were the proposed model`s benefits; therefore, according to these preferences, the use of the mentioned process can be efficient in performance evaluation and ranking of the sport boards.
