The institutional face of digital football in Türkiye
Ateş Spor Organizasyon İthalat ve İhracat Ltd. was founded in 2018 by Barış Atayay and Kadir Alayoğlu, headquartered in Istanbul.
In 2018 the company became the official VPG Türkiye representative and began organising professional league competitions in FC Clubs Pro mode. Operations in digital football and esports have continued without interruption ever since.
The Turkish Esports Football League (TEFL) launched in 2019, followed by the Turkish Esports Pro League (TEPL) in 2020. Both quickly became the country's flagship digital football competitions.
Between 2020 and 2023, our Ateş e-Spor brand also competed in PUBG Mobile, extending our presence into other competitive esports titles.
A 2021 agreement with the Turkish Esports Federation gave all our league competitions official status — a milestone in the institutionalisation of digital football organisations in Türkiye.
TEFL today hosts the official esports sides of Turkish Süper Lig clubs alongside dedicated esports organisations.
2025-2026 Season 2 is currently being played.
TEPL features representatives of Turkish 1. Lig clubs together with leading esports organisations.
Under the wider VPG Türkiye umbrella we run additional league competitions for amateur clubs, supporting the development of new teams and their pathway to the professional level.
Weekly tournaments are also organised on a regular cadence, giving players a continuous competitive environment in which to grow.
Our organisation is run by an experienced leadership team.










Our Vision
Our goal at Ateş Spor Organizasyon is to grow the culture of digital football in Türkiye, contribute to the development of esports in our country, organise professional competitions across different game titles, create opportunities for new players, and build an esports ecosystem strong enough to compete on the international stage.
