El abordaje del tema de la gestión deportiva y recreativa desde un modelo integrador de las políticas y metodologías que son aplicadas en el contexto costarricense, surge a partir de la inquietud de la identificación de las necesidades reales  en el campo del deporte, la recreación y la promoción de la salud, por medio del movimiento en sus diferentes manifestaciones. Esto se ha encontrado a lo  largo de ocho años de trabajo, desde el Instituto Costarricense del Deporte y la Recreación (ICODER), en conjunto y en directo con las diferentes comunidades costarricenses, tanto rurales como urbanas, y en estas con sus diferentes organizaciones, llámese Asociaciones de Desarrollo Integral Comunal, Comités Cantonales de Deporte y Recreación (CCDR) y sus Comités Comunales, Alcaldías Municipales, ONG’s, entre muchas otras; se toma en cuenta especialmente, el sentir producto de la vivencia, que presentan los CCDR como organizaciones responsabilizadas por el Estado costarricense de promocionar y gestionar los servicios de deporte y recreación municipal con una conveniente oferta que responda a las necesidades de todos los clientes o usuarios. De esta manera, se intenta responder a la interrogante de cómo realizar una gestión eficiente por los Comités, que a su vez responda a las necesidades de los usuarios o clientes públicos en los municipios del  país, por medio de una propuesta de modelo de gestión que contribuya como un insumo más en el mejoramiento del tipo de servicio que ya existe y es gestionado por dichas organizaciones. Estructurado a partir de los elementos teóricos que definen hoy la organización y planificación, los tipos de planes en deporte y recreación como un servicio, se presenta el siguiente modelo de gestión costarricense. 2011-06-10 http://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501 http://www.revistas.una.ac.cr/index.php/mhsalud/article/view/342 spa http://www.revistas.una.ac.cr/index.php/mhsalud/article/view/342/289 MHSalud: Revista en Ciencias del Movimiento Humano y Salud por Universidad Nacional se encuentra bajo una Licencia Creative Commons Atribución-NoComercial-SinDerivadas 3.0 Costa Rica.Basada en una obra en www.revistas.una.ac.cr MHSalud: Journal in Human Movement Sciences and Health by the National University is found under a Creative Commons Atribución-NoComercial-SinDerivadas 3.0 Costa Rica license.
