Copa Maria Bonita confirms second edition for November | OneFootball

After the positive impact of the first edition, the Maria Bonita Cup returns to Pernambuco’s sports calendar from November 12 to 21. The tournament, which has the support of the CBF and the Pernambuco Football Federation, continues to grow and is establishing itself as an important showcase for women’s football.

In the previous edition, the final between Fortaleza and Sport gained prominence when it was broadcast on free-to-air TV, reaching around 1.5 million viewers in Pernambuco and Ceará. The decisive match was also aired across nearly the entire Northeast, increasing the competition’s visibility.

For this year, the organizers are projecting progress both on and off the pitch, aiming to further strengthen the sport’s landscape. In addition, the Cup is expanding its role through a social project aimed at girls in vulnerable situations, offering training, multidisciplinary support, and assistance with personal development, in partnership with the Ademar Júnior Institute.

Another highlight of this edition is the campaign “The Northeast Wears the Maria Bonita Cup,” which brings together sport and culture through a collection of T-shirts inspired by the nine Northeastern states. The initiative reinforces the tournament’s regional identity, as it continues to discover talent and create new opportunities in women’s football.
