Corinthians discover group stage rivals for 2026 Copa São Paulo | OneFootball

On the evening of this Tuesday, the 25th, the São Paulo Football Federation (FPF) announced the groups and venues for the next São Paulo Junior Football Cup, the Copinha. And Timãozinho ended up in Group 8 along with XV de Jaú, which was designated as the seed, Trindade-GO, and Luverdense-MT.

The matches will take place in the city of Jaú, in the interior of São Paulo, likely at the Zezinho Magalhães Stadium, which has a capacity for 13,000 fans. The team will seek to reclaim the title of the competition – the last trophy lifted by the Alvinegro was in 2024, when the squad led by Danilo Andrade and captained by midfielder Breno Bidon overcame all opponents, defeating Cruzeiro in the final.

According to FPF rules, players born between 2005 and 2010 can participate in the Copinha, and each club can register up to 30 athletes. The list of player names must be submitted to the entity by mid-December, and once registered, players cannot be replaced under any circumstances.

The 2026 Copinha will begin on January 2nd, with the final scheduled for January 25th, the anniversary of the São Paulo capital, as in previous editions. It is worth remembering that Corinthians is the most successful team in the São Paulo Cup, with a total of eleven titles won, having triumphed in the tournament in the years 1969, 1970, 1995, 1999, 2004, 2005, 2009, 2012, 2015, 2017, and 2024.
