The first edition of the Under-15 Liga Evolución was also held in Paraguay, in 2025. In the final, Brazil drew with Argentina and secured the trophy in the penalty shootout, winning 4–2. On that occasion, Nathália Borges played an important role in Brazil’s triumph by standing out in the shootout.

Organized by the South American Football Confederation (Conmebol) within the Evolución Program, the tournament brings together the ten national teams affiliated with the entity. The competition format is divided into two phases.

In the first stage, the teams are split into two groups of five each. All teams play each other once within their respective groups in a round-robin format.After the group-stage matches, the teams advance to the placement round. The national teams that finish in the same position in each group face one another — first place versus first place, second versus second, and so on.

With this format, all participants will have five matches throughout the competition. The matches will consist of two 40-minute halves, with a 15-minute halftime break.

Brazil will make its debut on September 9 at 6:30 p.m. against Ecuador. Two days later, on the 11th, the opponent will be Colombia at 4 p.m. The third match is scheduled for September 13 at 6:30 p.m. against Peru. Next, Brazil will face Venezuela on the 15th, also at 6:30 p.m. The team’s final match will be played on September 19.
