The present study aims to understand how the journey of the first southern Brazilian sailor to participate in the Olympic Games (OG) of the Modern Era occurred. To that end, the sources used were Brazilian newspapers, which were submitted to documentary analysis. Yachting, since the OG of 1900, has continued in all subsequent editions with an increasing number of countries participating in the disputes. Brazil's participation in this modality began in the 1936 OG. Brazilian Olympic athletes precursors of sailing were linked to clubs in Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo. Only in the editions of the OG of the 1950s, the Brazilian delegation will be composed of sailors from other Brazilian states. The southern Brazilian athlete Alfredo Jorge Ebling Bercht did his debut in 1952 and, in 1956, participated with his brother, Rolf Ebling Bercht. The sources revealed that the participation of Alfredo Ebling Bercht in the OG of the 1950s did not obtain prominence in the press of Rio Grande do Sul and was little mentioned in the one of Brazil, despite the trajectory of this sailor in regional and national competitions are followed conquests and these are valued and published by the newspapers. In addition, the trajectory of this sailor shows the disputes between modalities inside the confederations.Downloads
