We live in a globalized world, this reality has interfered directly in the life of society, several changes take place. Undoubtedly, this process is irreversible, since man will not regress. Information is accessible by people instantly. Sport is able to unite nations in this globalization, awakens passion and join people of all creeds, cultures and languages. Individual players or sports teams transcend cultural and educational boundaries.   Through it all, they learn values like discipline, sacrifice, solidarity, courage, ethics and transparency.
