ABSTRACT This study aimed to discuss the similarities between sporting clubs and Scouting in Rio de Janeiro during the years of 1910-1920. In those decades, the first scouting groups were institutionalized. Pari passu, sport societies acquired new conformations. For this work, we used as sources periodicals published in the city during this period. It was possible to realize that, relating the encounter of these two movements (scout and sport), arguments about body education in connection with the socio-political moment of the nation were waged.
