Abstract

This study investigates the possible presence of resilient behaviors in girls who practice soccer, taking as focus group girls from a lower class, who practice the sport in Viçosa-MG. Because of the difficulties faced towards bringing and keeping girls in soccer, which are common due to social position and the genre of the focus group, it is believed that resilience keeps them practicing, as a resource towards the wide movement for the feminine social emancipation. The methodology was based on participant observation, alongside with notes, photographs and filming that could prove the girl’s possible resilient behavior.
