Persepolis

On December 5, 2005, by three votes to two, he was chosen to be Persepolis' chairman after the resignation of Hojatollah Khatib. In April 2007, Ansarfar resigned from his post because of pressure from political board members.

In late April 2007 Ansarifard submitted his resignation to Ali Saeedlu in protest to the intervention of Physical Education on appointing several new managers into the club Management committee.
