This paper aims to study the motivators & consequences of betting in football by using the structural equations approach. In the first stage, a qualitative method & to test the pattern, a quantitative method based on structural equations pattern were applied. The population in the qualitative part consisted of experts & academics in sports management which was chosen through purposeful sampling method, snowball method, & theoretical saturation factor of the desired sample method. Eleven of these academics & experts were interviewed. In the qualitative part, the data was gathered via a questionnaire designed by the researcher. In the quantitative part, random purposeful sampling was used (385 people). The findings of the present research showed that betting motivators include social incentives, social media/networks, tempting motivators, pleasure, & the outcomes of betting. It is suggested that legal measures such as cyber police surveillance of these websites be taken. Moreover, alternative recreational activities & facilities need to be provided for the young, if their tendency toward these sites is to be reduced.

The aim of the present study the influence of mass media on the control of corruption in football. The study population consisted of all players in terms of purpose and working in the Iranian Premier League (420 = N) which uses a simple random sampling and the sample was determined by Cochran (203 = n). A questionnaire to collect data on the impact of the mass media 23 questions in 4 subscales (of culture, of education, of information and of social contributions) and section 15 questions in 4 small techniques to control corruption scale (of the effectiveness of laws, regulatory factors, cultural factors and economic factors and subsistence) was set up and developed. The validity and content validity of construct validity and reliability using Cronbach's alpha reliability coefficient was investigated. Data for the analysis of Pearson correlation coefficient using spss software and structural equation modeling approach was used by AMOS software.The results showed that the mass media with a correlation coefficient 0/812 to control corruption in football and there is a positive correlation. SEM results showed that the mass media with the value of 0/78 and critical ratio (CR) 5/123 impact on the control of corruption in football. The mass media to promote transparency, reduce corruption plays an effective role as an increase in the transparency procedures, increase the participation of citizens and ensure their rights in the management of sports organizations.
