Located in the Sport Psychology, the aim of the inquiry was to identify and understand the horizon of experiences lived by young people as base athletes of soccer teams living in the Club dorms. 19 players of category sub-17 in the first division of the Paulista and Mineiro Championship were interviewed. The phenomenological Archaeology of cultures methodologically refers to the analysis which gave access to determinant experiences of the situation under study. Existentially, the individual experiences interpenetrate themselves shaping the perception of the players. The counterbalance and guidance of such experiences are modeled especially by the sense of the project of each player and by the endeavor put in him. In this delicate context of transition, is through the contact toward the dimension of the existential project which the performance of the psychologist plays his ethical role.
