Data collection tools included a systematic review of resources, interviews with experts, holding an expert panel and Delphi Online, and MigMac software and script wizard, as well as expert analysis, were used to analyze the data. In the first step, seven Propulsion include: disciplinary-security management of sporting events, human resource management, and preparedness of executive agents of events, infrastructure and security standards, new security technologies, monitoring and regulation of sporting events, coordination, and communication of responsible organizations, the establishment of command and control center operations and the appointment of club security officers were identified. Using Mick Mac software, structural analysis was performed and with the help of the Delphi process, after determining the uncertainties, the scenarios were identified and extracted as follows: a) Spontaneous security scenario b) Rifle security scenario C) Cemetery security scenario.
