The objective of the study was to determine the relationship between the performance of a few selected Ethiopian sports federations and their strategic plan. A stratified sampling strategy was used to choose the study’s population. The Ethiopian Football Federation and Ethiopian Athletics Federation were two of the sports federations considered in the study. In this study, a sample size of 95 respondents (n=95) was used. Focus group discussions and semistructured interviews were used to gather the data. The study’s independent variable, which was measured by a structured questionnaire, was the strategy plan among the standardized questionnaires. The correlations were examined using an AMOS-generated structural equation model. The findings showed a moderately good link between organizational performance and the implementation of strategic planning practices in a few Ethiopian sports organizations. The results imply that the success of sports organizations can be significantly impacted by a well-developed strategic plan. The report suggested that selected Ethiopian sports federations establish quarterly meetings to give staff members a chance to voice concerns about the effectiveness of sports federations and strategic planning procedures.}, number={3}
