Introduction:

Cuba, immersed in a tenacious struggle for its identity and development since the beginning of the Revolution, set out to develop its scientific-technical potential. Today it can be talked about science at the National Institute of Sports, Physical Education and Recreation. This organization has a qualified scientific human potential, which directs its research in this branch and the satisfactory results that translate into medals are inescapable evidence. The established policy on science, which establishes the regulations and legal bases for the application of science, Technology, Innovation and the Environment, takes into account the state of the processes that comprise it.
