Mexico is a country with a significant gap in social protection. Therefore, it is not to be surprised that social segregation is reproduced in diverse domains. This article analyses the afore mentioned segregation within sport and how it is misused as a potential contribution to collective welfare. Under current conditions, sport in Mexico reflects the exclusion of those with less and continues to prevail for a pecuniary vision that seeks sport spectacles with high financial profitability. This leaves aside its substantial contribution to public health as well as the development of human values that enhance human coexistence and encourage social inclusion, which in the end constitute the great contributions from sport to democratic systems.

Palavras-chave : Social capital; sport-for-development; social exclusion; citizenship; democracy.
