RESUMO

This study aimed to investigate whether the sport provided by Children and dolescents in Situations of Risk (CASR) promote social inclusion. We, in a Pelotensian entity, did a qualitative research whose purpose is to develop sports activities as a form of social inclusion. To that end, we used two different techniques, the focus group and semi-structured. There were invited to participate in this study eighteen children and adolescents, aged between 10 and 15 years old, selected at random, and included both genders. Basing our work on their words, our purpose was to show if it, social inclusion through sport, was being achieved. The records collected were transcribed, examined and classified, three themes, two categories and two reasons emerged from this material. The entity, a philanthropic stamp, maintains agreements with the Federal and Municipal Government, relying on resources derived from four Public Policies. Some sponser these activities, while others target the maintenance of these children and adolescents with the aim of the families to keep them occupied in counter-round school. However, this aid does not usually reach its destination, due to the money being delayed for many months, generating a large financial problem to the entity, which in turn triggers a range of other obstacles: lack of material, skilled and/or qualified personnel; cancellation of activities, workshops, deterioration of infrastructure, etc. We; through the work, unveiled situations that evidenced to be social inclusion, through the sports; still it is very fragile in terms of policies to include applicants to practice sports, the analysis shows benefits from Social Policy. Also it denotes the fragility of these policies in that there is no effective coordination between them. Despite its weakness in reducing inequalities, we can see that the programs do contribute to CASR, not to use drugs, stay at school, preserve family ties and maintain their capacity to dream
