ACOSTA, Edgar Raúl. INITIATION AND SPORTS EDUCATION: A REFLECTION ALWAYS ON TIME. rev.udcaactual.divulg.cient. [online]. 2012, vol.15, suppl.1, pp.57-65. ISSN 0123-4226.

For decades the fact, that the sports initiation, understood as a multifaceted process, is the basis for a country’s sports development, has been widely documented. However, it is still more important to fulfill the objective of forming physically active citizens with high values of social and environmental coexistence. This process is not well known and understood, not only by most people, but also by sport leaders, politicians, journalists and many sport professionals. This fact origins that many of the developed processes in this area lack the coherence and continuity, necessary to guarantee the scope of sporting triumphs and of social and environmental harmony. Therefore it becomes imperative to carry out a theoretical and practical revision of the actual practices on initiation and sports training, in order to strengthen clear politics at the national level which enables the consolidation of a national sports culture.

Keywords : Sport; initiation and sports training.
