Methods: The research method was qualitative content analysis. The statistical population included all student sports authorities, experienced physical education teachers, lawmakers, natural and legal people who were related to Iranian education in the 2018–2019 academic year plus documentation related to student sport. A total of 14 semi-structured interviews were conducted with study samples recruited by a purposeful sampling method. Analyzes were conducted in three stages using MAXQDA software, resulting in 76 concepts, 14 subcategories, and 4 main categories. Results: The results showed that participation in student sport, given its role in student health, faces four categories of legal, strategic, organizational, and social barriers. Conclusion: Trans-sectional participation in student sport requires practical plans to reduce or remove barriers.
