Abstract
The Argentine Peronist Party used state-organized children’s soccer tournaments (1948–1955) as a form of political clientelism to politicize the leisure time of working-class children. Soccer competition served as a medium through which the state could inculcate future Peronist supporters as well as popularize state programs to working-class parents. The tournaments represent a unique form of propaganda targeting both working-class children and their parents through patron networks and coopting.
