Football league season
The 2021 Campeonato Brasileiro Feminino A-2 is the 5th season of the Campeonato Brasileiro de Futebol Feminino Série A2 , the second level of women's football in Brazil. The tournament is organized by the Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF). It started on 15 May and scheduled to end on 5 September 2021.
It is played by 36 teams, which qualified through state championships or other tournaments held by each of the state federations, and also by the men's CBF ranking . This last criterion exists because of the requirement that, as of 2019 , all Campeonato Brasileiro Série A teams in men's football a professional and youth soccer team, either in its own structure or by partnership.[ 1]

Starting from the round of 16, the teams will play a single-elimination tournament on a home-and-away two-legged basis. The teams qualified for the semifinals will be promoted to 2022 Campeonato Brasileiro Feminino Série A1 [ 2]
