The aim of this study was to investigate the volume and characteristics of the amendments approved in the budget of the Ministry of Sports (ME) from 2004 to 2015. This research, documentary and exploratory nature, collected data from SIGA Brazil Portal. We verified that allocation of parliamentary amendments was primarily from individual amendments (R$ 8.2 billion) and, except for the amendments of the rapporteur, the proposals favored the implementation of sports infrastructure (R$ 12.9 billion). States and municipalities were the largest beneficiaries (R$ 12.5 billion). Except for Espírito Santo, the states of the southeast region totaled the largest volume of budgetary resources. We concluded that the allocation of amendments in the budget of the ME privileged the attendance of individual demands of the parliamentarians by directing resources to small works, especially from "Esporte e Lazer da Cidade" and "Segundo Tempo" programs, in locations where they were bound.
