The 2026 Parazão Feminino begins on Thursday, November 5, with the opening round of matches. This year’s tournament has six teams, one more than the previous edition, and sees Cabanos and Carajás return to the state competition. Cabanos last played in 2024, while Carajás had been absent since 2021. The championship offers a place in the 2027 Brazilian Série A3.
The competition will be held throughout November, following the format used in the past two years. Each team faces the other five once in the first phase, which consists of five rounds. The top four qualify for the semifinals, with first playing fourth and second facing third.
The knockout matches are single games. If a match is level at the end of regulation, the winner is decided by a penalty shootout. The semifinal winners meet in the final, scheduled for November 25 or 29.
Paysandu enter as defending champions after beating Tiradentes in last year’s final. The club’s women’s team has four titles among the current participants. Esmac and Independente share the overall record, with six championships each.
The listed second-round fixtures are Cabanos against Remo, Tiradentes-PA against Boca Jrs, and Carajás against Paysandu, all on November 8 at 3 p.m. The third round is scheduled for November 12, followed by the fourth on November 15 and the fifth on November 19. The semifinals are set for November 22.
