The aim of this study was to analyze the implementation of a sports-educational program in prisons where the Real Madrid Foundation&rsquo, s Social-Sports Program is carried out. For that purpose, a survey of 468 inmates was conducted at 21 prisons in Spain where the Real Madrid Foundation implements its program (441 men (94.23%) and 27 women (5.77%)). Inmates stated that the program had had a favorable influence on their life in prison and considered that their participation in the program might have a significant influence on the likelihood of them continuing to play sports when they are released. In addition, inmates felt that they had learned a great deal about the contents relating to football and the values they had worked on, and that the program had had a very positive effect on their overall development as a person.

This paper aims to contribute to a better understanding of the moral development in sports at school age. A fair play behaviours typology has been developed, arranged into five stages of ethical progress and performed by young athletes within the White Card programme at the Fundación Real Madrid (FRM) basketball schools. In order to ascertain its validity, descriptions of the behaviours were submitted to the coaches at the FRM (n = 18), and a group of experts in sports and values from the actual FRM (n = 6) in order to rate them on a scale from 1 to 5 depending on the moral value they attribute. The result obtained confirm, with few exceptions, the five proposed stages of progression. Ce travail a pour objet de contribuer à une meilleure compréhension du développement moral dans le sport à l’âge scolaire. Nous avons elaboré une typologie de conduites de fair play ordonnées en cinq niveaux de progression éthique et réalisées par de jeunes sportifs des écoles de basket de la fondation Real Madrid (FRM) dans son programme Carton Blanc (programa Tarjeta Blanca). Pour vérifier sa validité, les descriptions des conduites on été présentées aux entraîneurs de la FRM (n = 18) et à un groupe d’experts en sport et valeurs de la FRM (n = 6) elle-même pour les faire évaluer dans une échelle de 1 à 5 en fonction du mérite moral accordé. Le résultat obtenu, sauf pour de légères exceptions, confirme les cinq niveaux de progression proposés.

Competitive sport is one of the key contexts in the development of values through sport, given the very significant ambivalences and contradictions involved within sport. Since the 2008-09 season the Real Madrid Foundation has launched in its basketball schools an educational project of transmission of values called "For a REAL Education: Values and Sport", which has led to the development of different teaching materials including the "White Card" program, an educational resource that tries to encourage good sportsmanship and moral development of participants. The aim of this work is to analyze how useful the program is to both trainers and families. The program has been applied to 338, 356 and 334 players aged between 8 and 17, by 16, 15 and 18 teachers in 2010-11, 2011-12 and 2012-13 seasons respectively. The methodology used in intervention has been action research and the instruments used for data collection were group discussion, questionnaire, survey and our own white cards given to players in tournaments. The assessment of this resource has been very positive from the coaches, and a high percentage, of parents of the young athletes.
