description This research assesses the relationship between sport and mathematical thinking, allowing us to understand how this integration is perceived, valued and experienced by the graduates of the Centro de Bachillerato Tecnológico Agropecuario 116 (CBTa 116), generation 2020–2023. Mathematical thinking is an area of knowledge in education that is taught from the basic to the higher level, it is fundamental for problem solving, the development of critical, logical, reflective, analytical and conclusive skills. Physical-sports activities are recognized for their multiple benefits, including disease prevention and improved overall well-being. The inclusion of sports in upper secondary education is essential to create an environment that favors positive interactions and integral development, thus contributing to the formation of healthier students who are more committed to their environment. In this study, the mixed research method was applied, carrying out a probabilistic sampling for convenience derived from the contact limitations of the graduates, applying a survey to 49 of 72 as a method of quantitative data collection representing 68% of the population, on the other hand, the technique of observation of the activities carried out was used for the complementary thematic analysis by the qualitative method. Considering the taste and motivation that students had when applying these interdisciplinary strategies, there were percentages above 70%, mostly with a very high and high rating, thus showing the relevance of incorporating physical-sports activities as a teaching strategy in situated learning.
