This study is within the scope of sport psychology, specialty and professional field of psychology. Considering the interface between the other sports sciences, especially physical education, we sought to understand the qualification and scientific production in sport psychology in Amazonas. Possible productions were mapped and accredited courses in psychology and physical education, their respective curricular structures in order to identify the insertion of this area as a discipline, in addition to groups and lines of research. Generally, the results point to an unconsolidated scientific context with the offer of sports psychology courses in the Bachelor of Psychology and Physical Education courses. We highlight the recent growth of monographs addressing the theme and the non-disclosure of research results as a problem to be faced. It is suggested to create alternatives inserted in the academic context in order to promote the dissemination of productions, as well as the relevant discussion on the field of sport psychology in qualification.
