A survey was conducted.The statistical population included all male and female sports teachers in Ahvaz (N=521). The sample size was estimated using Morgan table (n=220). The instrument was a researcher-made questionnaire designed by the researchers. To assess the content and the formality of the questionnaire, a number of related professors were reviewed and distributed after the desired modifications. Also, convergence and divergence validity was used to investigate the validity and reliability of the construct. The findings of this study showed that 9 factors of cultural and social, managerial and organizational, economic, personnel, equipment, motivational, time, climate and media affect the development of basic sports in elementary schools of Ahvaz. In general, considering the final output of the software and its fitting indexes, it was found that the proposed model is consistent with the data obtained from the research. In the meanwhile, management factors with path coefficient (0.326) had the highest and motivational factors with path coefficient (0.071) had the least effect on the development of basic sports in Ahvaz schools. In general, it is recommended that special consideration be given to the factors affecting the development of basic gymnastics in schools and to take into account the results of sporting school policies.
