Campeonato Paulista de Futebol Feminino

The Campeonato Paulista de Futebol Feminino (Paulista Women's Football Championship, in English) is the women's football state championship of São Paulo State, and is contested since 1987.

There is no predetermined format for the competition, changing almost every year.

The 2001 edition became notorious as "one of the most discriminatory sports championships ever". Organisers controversially excluded all players with what was perceived as unattractive qualities such as being over 23 years old, having short hair or dark skin.^[1]

In 2004, the competition was contested by 32 teams, divided into eight groups of four teams each. The two best placed teams of each group qualified for the second round, contested by 16 teams divided into four groups composed of four teams each. Again, the two best placed teams qualified for the third round, contested between eight teams, divided into two groups of four teams each. The two best teams of each group qualified for the fourth round, which was composed of a single group of four teams. The first two teams of this group qualified for the final. The competition was contested in single leg matches.

In 2005, the competition was contested by 16 teams, divided into four groups of four teams each, playing against each other once. The two best teams of each group qualified for the next round. The teams eliminated in the first round played relegation playoffs, over two legs. The second round consisted of two groups of four teams each, playing in two leg matches. Each group's two best placed teams qualified for the third round, which was semifinal matches over two legs. The winners of these matches qualified for the final, which was played as a single match.
