Sport and competition are completely interconnected issues and are present in society in different ways. However, teachers of Physical Education (EF) at school have difficulties in contextualizing the competition in their classes, often for not knowing proposals that approach the subject in a significant way for them. In this context, this research has as main objective to describe the consequences of an action research with teachers of EF, about the treatment of sports competition in school. In eight meetings, one of the researchers and two teachers met to study the application of Sport Education. The results point to a change in the teachers' conception about the contextualization of sports competition in EF classes, since they understood the possibility of working with this theme from the principles of Sport Education.
