This study aimed to compare sports motivation between systematized and non-systematized spaces of practice. Three hundred eighty-one youths of both sexes, aged between 10 and 18, participated in this study. The sample was constituted according to the practice location reported by the participant, distributed in three groups: (1) Training, (2) School, and (3) Others (public parks, clubs, public sports courts, house, street, etc.). The instrument used to measure sports motivation was the Sport Motivation Scale (SMS). After statistical analysis, it was found that training is the place where there are the greatest motivational levels, being significantly more accentuated when compared to other environments. In this direction, it was found that school Physical Education cannot provide motivation levels close to training, presenting motivational climates equivalent to other non-systematic places of practice.
