Copa FGF

The Copa FGF (Federação Gaúcha de Futebol Cup), also known under various sponsored names, is an annual knockout football competition organized by the Federação Gaúcha de Futebol (FGF), the football association of the state of Rio Grande do Sul in Brazil.

The competition typically involves clubs from Rio Grande do Sul that are not competing in the higher divisions of Brazilian football, such as Série A, Série B, and Série C. It provides these clubs with an opportunity to compete for a trophy and potentially qualify for national-level competitions, such as the Copa do Brasil.

The format of the Copa FGF varies from year to year but generally involves a group stage followed by knockout rounds. The winner of the Copa FGF is often awarded a place in the following year's Copa do Brasil.

The Copa FGF serves as an important platform for smaller clubs in Rio Grande do Sul to gain visibility and develop their players. It also contributes to the overall footballing landscape of the state.
