Copa Centro-Sul -- List of Champions

In 1968, CBD assumed the organization of Roberto Gomes Pedrosa tournament
and created, aside this tournament, the Centro-Sul and Norte-Nordeste cups.

1968 - Grêmio de Esportes Maringá (Maringá-PR)
1969 - not finished
1970 - not realized

In 1971, when CBD extended the right of participation to any interested
state of Brazil and turned the Roberto Gomes Pedrosa tournament into the
Campeonato Brasileiro, the Centro-Sul and Norte-Nordeste cups became the
official Brazilian Second Level. So, the Centro-Sul and Norte-Nordeste
cups can be considered, in some sense, predecessors of the Brazilian
Second Level, just like the Roberto Gomes Pedrosa is considered the
precursor of the Brazilian First Level.
