About Us

Ireland Esports Leagues is the national competition and community network for competitive gaming across the island.

We operate structured esports leagues for schools, universities and workplaces — connecting players, institutions and communities into one system.

This isn’t a one-off tournament or a single title. It’s a long-term structure for Irish esports.

WHY WE EXIST

We believe structure in esports should be earned through participation, consistency and trust — not declared.

Esports in Ireland has grown quickly — but not always in a connected way.

Players compete in isolated tournaments. Communities operate independently. Opportunities appear, but don’t always link together.

Ireland Esports Leagues exists to change that.

We bring structure to the ecosystem — creating consistent competition, clearer pathways, and a shared platform that connects everything together.

WHAT WE RUN

SCHOOLS SERIES

A structured introduction to esports within education — designed to support students, teachers and schools through competitive gaming.

COLLEGIATE SERIES

Ireland’s official university and college esports league, now in its 8th season, with institutions competing from across the island.

COMPANY SERIES

A workplace esports league bringing companies, teams and alumni into structured competition — combining performance with culture and connection.

THE COMMUNITY LAYER

Irish esports is built on communities.

We work alongside national communities across major titles — including Counter-Strike, Call-Of-Duty, Rocket League, Valorant and League of Legends — supporting their growth while connecting them into a wider system.

This approach keeps the ecosystem open, collaborative and grounded in the people who play.
