Abstract

Due to its complexity as a multisport, sports counseling in Cuban school athletics constitutes a problem worthy of investigation. The objective is to support the application of developmental profiles based on deportograms to improve the sports counseling process toward the initial specialization of 12- to 14-year-old children participating in athletics. This is an exploratory and descriptive study. The study of relevant sources of argumentation made it possible to clarify that modeling based on the strongest athletes is the fundamental method for managing the sports counseling process in multisport athletics. The use of deportograms constitutes a valid methodological tool for this purpose. It is suggested that their developmental study be considered, based on the assessment of the tendency toward one of the possible morpho-patterns that are structured by the characterization of possible combinations between athletic disciplines.
