Abstract

The study aims to identify the extent to which the decision-making factor in sports clubs contributes and its importance in raising the level of elite sports under sports professionalism. For this purpose, the descriptive method was used on a sample consisting of 10 football technicians and managers, and 18 players. To collect data, a questionnaire tool was used. After gathering the results and processing them statistically, it was concluded that the decision-making factor in clubs plays a role in improving the level of elite sports under professionalism. Moreover, participatory and consultative decision-making produces a positive impact on the club’s performance, enhances its value on the football scene, and contributes to the development of football, elevating it to stardom and international recognition. On this basis, the study recommended considering both the positives and negatives of any decision taken, examining all possibilities and potential outcomes, and assessing their suitability.
