We are delighted to announce a new partnership between Ireland Esports Leagues and COD Ireland, the national gaming community for everything Call of Duty across the island. This collaboration marks another important step in building a unified, island-wide structure for esports and wider gaming.
As COD Ireland heads into the upcoming Black Ops 7 season, the community continues to grow and evolve. Their mission is clear: to collaborate with the wider Irish esports ecosystem and showcase the full potential of competitive Call of Duty on home soil. By working with organisations across the sector, COD Ireland has built a reputation as a passionate and dedicated community — one that aligns perfectly with the vision of Ireland Esports Leagues.
At IEL, our goal is to connect schools, universities, companies, and national gaming communities into one sustainable pathway. This framework is designed to support competition, education, and content creation at every level of play.
This aligns directly with COD Ireland’s vision:
For young and upcoming talents – a place to hone their skills and take their first steps into competitive play.
For existing players – a platform to be recognised within Ireland for their abilities.
For older players – an opportunity to reconnect with esports through a welcoming national community.
For casual gamers – a space to play with friends and enjoy the fun side of competition.
Looking Ahead
Together, Ireland Esports Leagues and COD Ireland will work to create new opportunities for Call of Duty players of all levels, from grassroots to competitive. Whether you are chasing titles, rediscovering past passion, or just jumping in for the fun of it, this partnership is designed to make Irish esports more inclusive, accessible, and rewarding.
ZepCasts, Founder and CEO of COD Ireland displaying his enthuisiam around the partnership saying, “We look forward to working with IEL and shaping the future of esports within Ireland.”
We couldn’t agree more. This is only the beginning, and we’re excited to take the next steps together.
