Youth, Physical Activity and Leisure: An Analysis of a Youth Program in Brazil

摘要


This paper aims to study the interest of young people between 12 and 18 years to engage in physical activity as a leisure option and to verify the influence of the "SESC Summer" program in stimulating the physical activity practices of young people. This study consists of a qualitative study, interviewing young participants of the "SESC Summer" and managers linked to this program's organisation, using a semi-structured interview procedure. Findings showed that young people are interested in physical activity as a leisure option, though it is not a priority, and its practice is aimed at amusement and casualness. The program has several attributes that may attract young people to practice physical activities at SESC, giving the program a transformative potential of young people's reality and showing them different physical activities that can be incorporated into their daily lives.
