Recreational sports activities to improve the use of free time in adolescents of the Modesto Carbo Noboa school

Abstract

This research deals with a current problem related to the use of free time by adolescents. For this purpose, a set of sports games linked to the environmental situation and sustainable development is proposed. First, the psychological characteristics of the adolescents of the Modesto Carbo Noboa school are analyzed. Subsequently, a set of recreational sports activities is offered which, while improving the use of free time in adolescents, increases their interest in physical activity and study and concern for environmental problems, since the adolescents undertook with great enthusiasm all the tasks assigned during the development of the activities.
