Corinthians president meets handball players picked for Brazil youth team | OneFootball

Corinthians president Osmar Stabile welcomed athletes Kamilly Nere dos Reis and Sofia Bittencourt Papera to Parque São Jorge last Tuesday (21). The two are standout players from the club’s youth handball ranks. Both were called up to represent the Brazilian U-14 national team and were honored by the club before traveling to represent the country.

The young athletes will join the Brazilian delegation for the South American Children’s Handball Championship, which will take place from July 27 to August 1 in Asunción, Paraguay. In addition to the continental competition, the tournament will serve as preparation for the Central-South Championship in the same age category.

In an official statement, Corinthians congratulated the players on their call-up and wished them success in the competition.

“Corinthians congratulates Kamilly and Sofia on this personal milestone achieved with the call-up and wishes them success in the competition.”

The call-up reinforces the work carried out by the club’s handball department, which maintains teams in the U-12, U-14, and U-16 categories, for both girls and boys. In addition to its competitive teams, Corinthians also has official training schools, member-based categories, and masters teams, broadening athlete development in the sport.

With a long tradition on the national stage, Corinthians handball has built a winning history, with more than 28 São Paulo State Championship titles, five Brazilian Championships, and three international titles across all categories.

Off the court, the department is also seeking to strengthen its structure. In 2026, Corinthians launched a sponsorship fundraising project focused on handball, aiming to attract companies interested in investing in the sport and contributing to the continued athletic and social development promoted by the club.
