First, through preliminary studies, the Preliminary List of Corruption Factors was identified. Then, semi-structured interviews with 15 knowledgeable elites were conducted on the subject of research to achieve theoretical saturation through theoretical sampling and snowball. The quality of the findings was confirmed by the theory verification strategy and Scott test. The proposed model consists of four main sections. The central section of the model represented major forms of corruption in sport, in particular, financial and ethical corruption. Factors affecting the sport corruption included four categories of political, structural, socio-cultural and economic factors. Coping strategies of sport corruption include legal solutions, IT development, knowledge development and social responsibility development.
