The Teaching Games for Understanding (TGfU) model is a didactic-methodological systematization recognized and consolidated internationally for the treatment of sports, and also a theoretical basis for other sports teaching proposals in different countries. For its relevance in international Sports Pedagogy debate, we identified the need to analyze how the TGfU is being scientifically discussed in Brazil and other Portuguese speaking countries? To answer this question, this study aims to analyze the scenario of academic production in Portuguese language on the TGfU model in the periodicals of Qualis CAPES - Physical Education. After the search process, which considered all the journals that compose this Qualis, we found nine studies written in Portuguese about TGfU, from the keywords Teaching Games for Understanding, TGfU and Teaching for Understanding. Then, we analyze these nine articles in terms of their publication years and journals, as well as the objectives, methodologies and populations of each research. From this analysis, we verified that the first production on TGfU was published 25 years after the study that officially proposed the model. In addition, we contacted seven studies that are theoretical discussions, based on the presentation of the characteristics and potentialities of the TGfU model as a possibility for sports development, being only two of them applied, one considering soccer initiation populations and another analyzing the experiments with TGfU in the initial formation in Physical Education. Finally, we systematized a time line of the production in Portuguese on the TGfU model, identifying two distinct phases: of Theoretical Discussion and Articulation/Intervention, which projects a tendency of new studies dedicated in advancing the construction of new knowledge in the future of production in Portuguese about TGfU.
