Accreditation is intended for non-rights-holding media outlets (NRH) and must be completed through the CONMEBOL Media Hub, the entity’s official platform for registration and press credential requests.
The submission period for requests began this Wednesday (22) and ends at 6:00 p.m. on July 29. Requests submitted after the established deadline will not be considered.
To request accreditation, journalists, photographers, and camera operators must have a previously approved profile on the CONMEBOL Media Hub (click here). After logging into the platform, the professional must access the “Tournaments” section, select “CONMEBOL U-17 Futsal 2026,” and fill in the requested information.
Approval of registration on the Media Hub and submission of the accreditation request do not, by themselves, confirm a spot. The granting of credentials will be subject to space availability and the criteria defined by CONMEBOL, considering the type of media outlet and the role performed by each professional.
Request for additional access
After completing the accreditation request, professionals must request the SADs (Supplementary Access Devices) corresponding to each matchday of the competition. These requests are required for access to media areas such as the press tribune, mixed zone, and photographers’ area, according to each professional’s role.
Responses to accreditation requests will be sent, starting July 31, 2026, to the email address associated with the professional’s registration on the CONMEBOL Media Hub.
The status of SAD requests, meanwhile, must be checked directly by the applicant in their profile on the platform.
News coverage without broadcasting
Radio stations, television broadcasters, web radios, and digital outlets may request accreditation as non-rights-holding media (NRH) to provide news coverage of the competition.
However, accreditation does not authorize the live broadcast of matches, whether in audio or video, since broadcasting rights are negotiated separately.
Media outlets interested in acquiring the broadcasting rights for the matches should contact Lucia Paz at [email protected], copying [email protected] and [email protected].
Limit of professionals per outlet
The number of accredited professionals per outlet may vary according to the category of the media outlet and the availability of space at each venue. The established limits are:
• Radio and web radio: 1 journalist per outlet;
• Print media – printed outlets: up to 2 journalists per outlet;
• Print media – websites and social media: 1 journalist per outlet;
• Photographers for print and web media: up to 2 professionals per outlet;
• NRH channels (non-rights holders): 1 journalist and 1 camera operator per outlet;
• International agencies: up to 2 journalists and 2 photographers per agency.
The allocation of spaces will be carried out by CONMEBOL, taking into account existing availability, the profile of the media outlet, and the role performed by the professionals.
If you have any questions about the accreditation process, interested parties may contact the Press Department of the Paraguayan Football Association (APF) by email at [email protected].
