This internship was born from the desire for personal and professional growth and to challenge myself. After evaluating the needs, it was understood that this internship would have Positive Development as a guide, and more specifically the Model of Personal and Social Responsibility. In a first phase, support was given to the study of athletes U14, U15, and U16. In a second phase, various activities and dynamics were carried out with athletes U14, such as: the secret word, managing emotions, the animal within us, the activity of the sticks, workshop on sexuality, workshop on consumption, among others. Besides these activities, there was also the participation in the University of Porto Exhibition. An investigation was also carried out with 19 participants from Casa do Dragão entitled, - "From Training to Life - the role of sport in promoting life skills". The questionnaires of Personal and Social Responsibility (QRPS) and Positive Development (PYD) were used in this research. The main conclusions to be drawn are: analyzing the U14 and U15 age groups, it can be noticed that the athletes have a very good perception of personal and social responsibility, and with regard to positive development, both age groups have a lot to improve, since the U14 athletes were in the intervention made throughout the training period, and the U15 athletes were not. Finally, a reflection was made about the positive and negative aspects, main difficulties and learning experiences of the internship.
