    This study aims to identify the profile of the public sports manager working at the municipal level in different Brazilian states. The Northeast, Centre-West, Southeast, and South regions were considered as the sample, through the states of Bahia, Ceará, Espírito Santo, Minas Gerais, Mato Grosso do Sul, Paraná, Rio Grande do Norte, Santa Catarina, and Sergipe, for a total of 1.955 municipalities in this research. The analysis was based on data relating to the "Human Resources" axis of the Sports Management in States and Municipalities (GEEM) instrument. The results showed a predominance of males, differences in Race; Age; Schooling; Level of School; Remuneration, both for each state and each region of the country. The conclusion is that there is a need for the academic and professional training for public managers in the field of physical education, combined with sports management, in order to make public policies more effective, as well as the continuation of public service programmes independent of the region.

    Esse estudo, de caráter documental, teve como objetivo investigar o volume e a aplicação de recursos públicos federais da CBHb no período entre 2008 e 2016, em relação as funções estabelecidas às entidades de administração do esporte, pelo Sistema Brasileiro do Desporto. Identificou-se as principais receitas da entidade e coletou-se documentos e prestações de contas (e.g. e-SIC, ME e COB) contendo os valores dos repasses e suas aplicações. Considerou-se apenas os valores executados pela entidade. No período, a CBHb executou R$ 129,6 milhões, que, embora segmentados, teve como a principal fonte os repasses de empresas estatais (41%). Em sua maioria, os recursos apresentaram interrupções e expressivas variações, mas que ao longo do período sofreram um aumento expressivo, justificado pela necessidade de impulsionar a preparação olímpica. Os dados apontaram para uma sobreposição no uso das políticas de financiamento quanto sua aplicação no esporte de elite e suas áreas de atuação. Identificou-se a ausência de uma política estruturada que garanta a oferta de atividades esportivas nas esferas educacionais e de participação que, consequentemente, alimentam o esporte de elite. Além disso, as políticas desenvolvidas se caracterizaram como ações que embora retardem o abandono do esporte, tendem a não estimular a renovação esportiva.
