In the week in which the Brasileirão Feminino comes to an end, TV Brasil reaffirms its commitment to the sport and announces a new stage of its sports coverage.
The public broadcaster of Empresa Brasil de Comunicação (EBC) reached an agreement with the São Paulo Football Federation (FPF) to broadcast 41 matches organized by the entity in 2026 and 2027, maintaining women's football as a continuous presence in its programming.
The first match will air on Saturday (10), with the Paulista F Sub-15 Petrobras final.
19 matches are scheduled for this year and 22 matches for next year. The partnership reinforces TV Brasil's positioning as the screen for women's football in the country.
Among the highlights is the exhibition of the 4th edition of Copinha F Petrobras – a competition that will feature 20 teams from all regions of Brazil, between November 24th and December 12th.
More than expanding the broadcast calendar, the agreement guarantees the broadcaster's audience permanent coverage of the sport, with space for grassroots categories, including the Copinha F Petrobras, and for the planned professional competitions, in a strategy that values the training of new athletes and monitors the development of the sport on and off the field.
"We believe in TV Brasil as the canvas for women's football because we understand that the sport needs continuity, a calendar and a presence in the media. The agreement with the São Paulo Football Federation reinforces this path at a strategic moment in preparation for the 2027 Women's World Cup in Brazil. Public communication plays an essential role in disseminating this movement, bringing the public closer to athletes, clubs, grassroots competitions and the stories that help transform women's football into a permanent agenda in the country", says the CEO of EBC, Antonia Pellegrino.
For three consecutive years, TV Brasil has broadcast important national competitions in the sport, such as the Brasileirão Feminino, with the largest package of women's football broadcasts on open TV since 2024. In 2025, the audience for matches grew by 25%.

The new stage of coverage creates a line of continuity for the public that follows women's football on TV Brasil.
After the Brasileirão Feminino, the broadcaster starts showing FPF competitions, with emphasis on tournaments that follow the training of athletes from grassroots to professional football.
Among this year's broadcasts are Copinha F Petrobras, Paulista F Sub-20 Petrobras, Paulista F Sub-17 Petrobras and Paulista F Sub-15 Petrobras.
In 2027, in addition to these tournaments, matches from the Paulista F Sub-13 Petrobras, the Taça Paulistana Petrobras and the Copa Paulista F Petrobras will be shown.
The Copinha F Petrobras is one of the highlights of the agreement. The competition will have 11 matches broadcast per season and will bring together clubs from different regions of the country, which expands the national dimension of the partnership and strengthens the visibility of new generations of women's football.
The president of the FPF, Reinaldo Carneiro Bastos, highlights that the partnership with TV Brasil is a reason for joy.
"Quality public television has a role that goes beyond broadcasting games: it brings women's football to more Brazilians, gives visibility to young athletes from different regions of the country and helps the public learn about their stories", he explains.
In addition to the capillarity of TV Brasil itself, the transmission of Copinha F Petrobras also gains reach with the support of broadcasters that are part of the National Public Communication Network (RNCP) distributed in all regions of the country, connecting fans to clubs in their localities.
