Football competition expansion in Brazil

Overview

Football activities in Brazil are seeing expansion through various amateur and professional competitions. In Santa Catarina, the João Pessoa football club from Jaraguá do Sul has commenced its campaign for the Campeonato Catarinense de Futebol Amador title, integrating nine new players to bolster its squad following a runner-up finish last season.

In Paraíba, regional football is also growing. The Torneio de Acesso, a component of the 17th edition of the Copa João Pessoa amateur tournament, has begun at the Arena da Graça. Eight teams are competing for quarter-final spots in the tournament, which is organized by the João Pessoa City Hall.

Furthermore, the professional Copa Paraíba is scheduled to return to the state calendar in late 2026 after a 14-year hiatus. The tournament will feature six elite teams from the Campeonato Paraibano: Atlético-PB, Campinense, Esporte de Patos, Nacional de Patos, Serra Branca, and Treze. The winner of the competition will secure a qualification spot for the 2027 Copa do Brasil.
