Several sub-themes were identified as particularly important in the SDP context.Practical implications: A more detailed understanding of these internal conditions help identify ways funders and policymakers can better support the development of more creative and sustainable organizations able to successfully adapt to changing environments and social issues.Research contribution: This study provides a starting point for theoretical advancements on the intraorganizational conditions necessary for the development and implementation of social innovation in sport.
