Cet article examine le sport recreatif pour enfants organise par des adultes sous l'angle foucaldien des technologies disciplinaires. Malgre des decennies d'efforts pour changer et reformer l'organisation du sport pour enfants, la difficulte de repondre aux besoins varies des participants demeure. L'article defend qu'il est temps de reconsiderer serieusement le role dominant occupe par les adultes dans les sports pour enfants et que nous devons trouver de nouvelles voies pour donner davantage de controle aux participants eux-memes. This paper examines children's adult-organized recreational sport through the lens of Foucauldian disciplinary technologies. Despite decades of effort and changes to children's sport, there is still difficulty in meeting the needs of many of the participants. This article argues that it is time to seriously reconsider the dominating role that adults occupy in children's sport and that we need to find ways to give more of the control of sport to the participants.
