Sumario:Developing an elite sport career requires efforts, being a challenge combining it with education in a con-text of dual career. Considering the futsal’s high social relevance in Brazil, this study aimed to analyse the aca-demic degree of men elite futsal players in São Paulo state. Data collection occurred based on a questionnaire application to 145 Brazilian men elite futsal players, re-lated to their own and their parents’ academic degree, and information on types of school/universities they attended. Statistical analysis was based on Chi-square, Cramer’s V and Spearman correlation tests. Discussion was based on categories from Pierre Bourdieu’s Re-flexive Sociology, with emphasis on familial cultural inheritance. Main results are: most of participants were not harmed on dual career; players that earned sport scholarships completed the basic education degrees; there was not influence from parents’ institutionalized cultural capital on players’ academic career. Concluding, majority of the participants presented better academic degree than the correspondent Brazilian stratified po-pulation. The investment on sport career seems facilita-ted this process, especially through sport scholarships
