Electronic sports
Electronic sports, abbreviated e-sports or eSports, is used as a general term used to describe computer and video games that are played as competitive sports. Less popular terms include competitive gaming, cybersports, cyber athletics (used by the CPL) and V-Sports (used by the GGL). In e-sports, what was once traditional clans have now grown out to be professional organizations, much like for instance a professional football club, rather than just a social group of players.
