The purposive sampling method was used for qualitative sampling, and sampling continued until the theoretical saturation was reached; based on this, 15 interviews were conducted.

It was positive for sports organizations. Based on the obtained results, talent management in sports organizations is affected by causal, contextual, and intervening conditions, and in dealing with them, the mentioned organizations need a blockchain system for selection and employment.
