The Campeonato Tocantinense is the top-flight professional state football league in the Brazilian state of Tocantins. It is run by the Tocantins Football Federation (FTF).
History The Tocantins Football Federation (FTF) was established on April 7, 1990 with the organization of clubs and leagues from the former northern region of Goiás and the sponsorship and execution of the first Tocantins State Amateur Football Championship (Copa Tocantins).
In 1993, the FTF presented its achievements from its two years of existence to the Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF) and proposed the professionalization of football in the state. The proposal was approved, allowing Tocantins teams to participate in national competitions organized by the CBF.
That same year, the FTF achieved several milestones, including the organization of the first professional football championship in Tocantins and the inclusion of Tocantins matches in the Brazilian sports lottery, such as the game between União Araguainense and Tocantins de Miracema.

In December, a new playoff phase was held, with Araguaína FR becoming the champion.
