Growth of women's sports in Brazil

Overview

Women’s sports in Brazil are experiencing increased professional representation and public engagement. In volleyball, Olympic champion Fofão has joined the Brazilian national team’s technical commission, supporting a broader initiative to increase female presence in coaching roles.

In football, interest in the 2027 Women’s World Cup is rising, with the Brazilian women’s national team becoming the most followed women’s team globally on social media. Public interest is further evidenced by a 120% increase in Google searches for the upcoming tournament.

Domestic competition is also seeing heightened visibility. TV Brasil has implemented a strategy to increase coverage of the Brasileirão Feminino, utilizing all-female broadcast teams to cover various tiers of the league, including the A1, A2, and A3 series, as well as youth categories. This coverage continues to support high-stakes matches, such as São Paulo’s 5-1 comeback victory against Botafogo in the Brasileirão Feminino A1. The result allowed São Paulo to tie with Corinthians at the top of the table with 38 points, while Botafogo remains in last place with five points.
