Abstract
The school is an important environment for the development of physical and sports activity. Thus, in order to deconstruct the polarization of school sport, rugby emerges as an alternative to Physical Education (PE) classes. The aim of this article was to describe the process of insertion of rugby in the school environment in the city of Pelotas/RS. This case study originates from the extension project developed to insert rugby in the Pelotas-RS schools. Between the years 2015 and 2017, 102 teachers participated in the project, reaching around 9,600 students in PE classes and 995 students in the festivals. In addition, most of the teachers looked for the modality as a new alternative of content and hoped to be able to learn and to reproduce the content. Finally, rugby was inserted into the teaching plans of teachers and viewed positively as an alternative to PE classes
