But the effects of physical activity on humeral immune properties of mothers’ milk is still undetermined. Therefore, reports on the impact of exercise on IgA concentrations of mothers’ milk is controversial. The purpose of the present study was the investigation of the effects of selected aerobic exercises in maximum intensity of 60-70% of heart rate reserve on IgA concentrations in breast milk as well as body composition.<strong> Method:</strong> In this research, 28 sedentary women (29±5.7 years; VO2max 36±4 ml/Kg/min), divided into two exercise and control groups through random sampling, took part. The exercise group performed some particular exercises for 10 weeks whereas the control group did not do so. Milk samples were taken from both groups and measured by the ELISA method. Body composition was also measured in different stages of the study. <strong>Results:</strong> In the rest status, the two groups were identical in terms of IgA concentrations (p= 0.549) and body composition (p=0.204). IgA concentrations under exercise load of 60% (p=0.060) and 70% (p= 0.001) of the HRR respectively showed a significant increase as compared to the resting status mean values in the two groups. Body composition variables were only of significant values in terms of comparing the general effects, only in the factors of group (p=0.003) and reciprocal effect of the grouping - the duration of the exercises (p=0.024). <strong>Conclusions:</strong> The results of this research show that, under the effects of moderate intensity exercise, the mothers’ secretory immune system experiences some changes. Therefore, IgA concentrations in the milk increase. In addition, with the reduction of fat weight, the decrease of fat mass percentage, and increase in the body density, the level of the mothers’ aerobic fitness is increased, which is in no contradiction with their lactation performance.Allameh Tabataba’i UniversityNew Approaches in Exercise Physiology2588-66141120190601Championship Sports for Iranian Women: Challenges, Opportunities and Solutionsمسابقات قهرمانی زنان ایرانی: چالش ها، فرصت ها و راه حل ها991161077210.22054/nass.2018.9861ENNazaninRasekhAssistant Professor of Sport Management, Sport Science Research Institute, Tehran, IranHosseinZareianAssistant Professor of Sport Management, Sport Science Research Institute, Tehran, IranHamidGhasemiAssociate Professor of Sport Management, Payam Noor University (PNU), Shahriar, Iran0000-0001-5305-3331ZohrehRezaiePhD of Sport Management, Sports Science Research Institute, Tehran, IranJournal Article20180710<strong>Purpose: </strong>The main purpose of this research was to study the challenges, opportunities and solutions of the championship sports for Iranian women. <strong>Method:</strong> The research method was mixed,and different methods were applied to serve the purpose of this research.

Participating in organized sports is regarded as one of the important social grounds (institutions) with the potential capability of supporting the mental health. High and long-term participation and attractive environments make organized sports a significant and positive instrument for facilitating the population level change in case of health treatments such as promoting the mental health, enhancing the emotional/social performance and the life quality related to social relationships. Taking part in sports spaces and fields or watching the sport matches create this feeling in the individuals that there is something going on that is far more important than the scores and results; as if the collective mind is given a new energy, and the individuals experience a sort of joy and happiness caused by participating in sport events or just watching them. Sports can be an attractive environment for supporting the subjective well-being, which can be realized by focusing on the importance of sports in childhood and adolescence, while supporting the subjective well-being in such periods and considering its positive effects on the future periods of life. Since subjective well-being is considered as a developmental index of societies and regarding the significant role of sports and physical activities in creating such feeling, it seems necessary that more attention be paid to sports and principled investments be done in this social institution, besides having responsible management and planning. The instances of such marks can be enumerated as the development of sport clubs, development of sport for all, building health roadin public places like parks and sidewalks, and providing sports and sports facilities for all categories and groups of the society regardless of gender, age and ethnicity.https://nass.atu.ac.ir/article_10771_12cabf83be2c362ff2a19dda041bdfa0.pdfAllameh Tabataba’i UniversityNew Approaches in Exercise Physiology2588-66141120190601Measuring Off-field Factors Affecting the Technical and Ethical Performance of Professional Football Athletesسنجش عوامل خارج از زمین مؤثر بر عملکرد فنی و اخلاقی ورزشکاران حرفهای فوتبال1691881078210.22054/nass.2019.10133ENMohammadBostakiM.Sc.
