With this agreement we’ll have been broadcasting the main women’s leagues for six consecutive years, completely free. As pioneers in the women’s game, we’re delighted that millions of fans in Brazil and worldwide will be able to watch established Seleçãostars and the next generation of talent.”

Ednaldo Rogrigues, CBF President, added: “The development of women’s football is one of our priorities. The signing of the partnership with ELEVEN for the three divisions of the Brazilian championship is another step in the growth of the discipline. Providing the fullest possible exposure of the women’s game is part of our strategy to generate new revenues, and help make the competitions sustainable”.
