On the 8th, before departure, the Corinthians delegation visited president Osmar Stabile in his office at Parque São Jorge, and also had contact with the professional futsal squad, which this season is competing in the Campeonato Paulista and the Liga Nacional de Futsal (LNF), at Ginásio Wlamir Marques.

Corinthians’ down futsal program resumed activities in 2022, after the stoppage caused by the COVID-19 pandemic break. The project, however, has existed since 2008. The Copa do Brasil took place between July 9 and 15. Now, Timão will also take part in mini-tournaments in Indaiatuba, Caçapava, and Hortolândia, in the countryside of São Paulo, during the month of August.

The Copa do Brasil de Futsal Down is being held again for the first time since 2024, as the Brazilian Confederation of Sports for People with Intellectual Disabilities had suspended the competition over the last two seasons while prioritizing regional competitions.
