Abstract
Given the importance of physical training for health, canoeing emerges as a different strategy to attract the interest of children and adolescents. Here, we present a research on the nature of culture and extension activities that has introduced and developed a program of canoeing, including the canoe pole, at Center of Sports Practice of University of São Paulo to meet university students and external community. The adherence of subjects on courses was high. Additionally, we developed two important academic tools during this project: tables of training periodization and a manuscript about the canoe polo. Both served in the management of classes and can be used by other professionals. Canoeing is a sport that has growth potential in Brazil. Thus, extension works, such as this work, are essential for their development in the country.
