Abstract: ABSTRACT Sports as a tool for social transformation helps in the development of children, improving their quality of life. This study aimed to analyze, using the KIDSCREEN-52 tool, the HRQoL (Healf Related Quality of Life) of 252 children aged between 8 and 12 years old, beneficiaries of the socio-sporting project Futsal Social, with a breakdown by sex and age. The results were tabulated in an SPSS spreadsheet, version 26.0. The Kolmogorov-Smirnov test was used to test normality, and ANOVA was used for variable association. The overall mean HRQoL score indicated a good perception of the quality of life. The lowest mean score was found in dimension 7 (financial aspects) with 63±21 points. Conclusion: In general, the investigated children presented a good perception of HRQoL.
