Introduction and objective: This study verified the main motivational factors for futsal practice in students from Petrolina-PE and Juazeiro-BA. Materials and Methods: The study included 40 boys with a mean age of 12.17 ± 1.75 years. The motivation inventory for Sports was used as an instrument. Data analysis was performed using independent student's t-Tests and Pearson's correlation coefficient (p<0.05). Results: The results showed that the older young practitioners presented greater competence (p=0.005) than the younger ones. There was also a significant correlation (p<0.05), positive and weak (R=0.35) of the competence dimension with age and negative and weak (R=-0.31) between friendship/leisure with age. Conclusion: It is concluded that the older futsal practitioners demonstrated to develop greater competence than the younger ones and that age seems to be an intervening factor for Competence Development and not intervening for friendship and leisure.
