Abstract
To understand young people motives for practicing sports is no longer possible to appeal to founding values of modernity like search for improvement, control of oneself and the environment, surpassing the other and achievement of this emblematic form of confrontation represented by practicing sports in an institutional context. The growing importance of sport activities is justified by its recreational intensity, the feelings encountered and the possibility of sharing experiences. The aesthetic side of existence fully develops in free sport. This tendency, presented as an hypothesis, is confirmed by two surveys of young people aged 15 to 20. The first one tries to determine the factors leading high school populations to the activities ; the second one attempts to draw the profile of applicants to the STAPS path at university.
