The Corinthians women's youth categories have undergone changes in the technical commands of the Under-15, 17, and 20 categories for the 2026 season. The latter two are competing in the Brazilian and Paulista Championships this year, while the younger ones are expected to compete in the state championship and the Development League. The new commanders of the Brabinhas shared their expectations for another year on the club's social media.

In the Under-15 category, Bianca Chamelete took over the position from Lizandra Nunes. She was an assistant in the category since last year and also coached the Under-13. On Corinthians TV, she discussed the importance of the club for the sport and the dedication of those who serve the club daily: “Working at Corinthians is a source of great pride, both for the struggles the team represents and has represented in its history, and for everything it does in women's football. We have a very young, united, joyful group that shows a lot of dedication and commitment to the work. You can count on a group very committed to the club's DNA, but also with their own characteristics. It's a very special group”, she said.

Next, Igor Freire was hired to lead the Corinthians Under-17 women's team. The professional spent five years in the Fortaleza categories, for Under-17 and 2, which had to cease its activities in the sport for 2026. He spoke about the opportunity to represent the Alvinegro and also emphasized that his team will be offensive.

“What it means to work at Corinthians is a gigantic opportunity. I am very happy and motivated, I hope to give my best and achieve all the objectives, titles, and develop good work so that Corinthians is always victorious. I can tell the Faithful Fans that they can expect a very determined team, that will always fight for the ball and be intense. It's the DNA of Corinthians, a very offensive team, and we will pursue the goals together”, he commented.

Finally, Julia Passero, who was the national champion leading the Under-17 Brabinhas in 2025, took over the Under-20 after Bia Vaz's departure. The coach was hired to train the Under-15 Brazilian Women's National Team. Passero responded about her identification with the club and the institution's representativeness for the sport.

“Representing Corinthians is of enormous grandeur. Since I was little, I have identified with the club, I believe everyone who works in girls' and women's football wants to work at the club. Not only for the day-to-day, but for how much the club means, how much women's football is very present and strong here. Also, for being a very victorious club, when entering here we challenge ourselves and I am always looking for challenges for my career.”

“To the Faithful, the fans can expect a lot of work and dedication from the technical team and the Brabinhas. That we can have an excellent year, rest assured that day by day we will do our best to get the best out of them and that we can enhance the athletes to reach the professional level”, she stated.
