Wireplay is a European group that promotes and hosts Team Fortress 2 leagues and events. It primarily deals with 6v6 and Highlander events. Games take place as part of a league and teams will move up and down tables based their win draw and loss ratio. There are 6 divisions, although lower-tier groups are usually split into alphanumeric groups. To participate a player must be registered and be part of a registered team. Players and teams registered with Wireplay are able to make recruitment posts in order to join a new team or fill any gaps in a roster.
