Copinha

For the first time, Esporte Clube Macapá will compete in the Copinha, the world’s largest under-20 football tournament. For young prospects from Amapá, the competition represents a rare chance to gain visibility. In Brazil’s Amazonian north, they are often overlooked — but in the Copinha, their matches will be broadcast nationwide, watched by scouts and agents connected to major clubs.
