Land sports: Corinthians opens high-performance academy | OneFootball

Throughout this Monday (13), Corinthians announced the opening of a high-performance gym for the club’s indoor sports department. Located at Parque São Jorge, the facility will be geared toward the professional basketball, futsal, and boxing teams, as well as the youth categories of basketball, futsal, volleyball, and handball.

It is worth noting that the gym is close to the locker rooms at Wlamir Marques Gymnasium, which makes things more practical and helps with the professionals’ daily routine. According to reporting by the Meu Timão portal, the investment for building the space came from Corinthians’ own funds, and all the equipment used is from Redfit, the outside gym where the athletes used to train.

In an official statement, the club emphasized that “with the new structure, Corinthians will centralize its activities, reducing travel, avoiding the high demand for shared spaces, and further strengthening Parque São Jorge as a center of sporting excellence.” This improvement comes at a time when the club’s indoor sports are on the rise.

That is because the basketball team is in good form and is competing for the top spots in the Novo Basquete Brasil (NBB), and has also qualified for the national tournament playoffs every season since 2018/2019, reaching the quarterfinals on three occasions during that span (2018/2019, 2020/2021, and 2024/2025).

Futsal, meanwhile, won two titles (Torneo Internacional Mucho Más and Taça São Paulo) and finished runner-up three times during the 2025 season (Campeonato Paulista, Liga Nacional de Futsal, and Supercopa Gramado).
