TJ Sports is a Chinese esports event operator focused on the League of Legends competitive ecosystem. It is the operator associated with the LPL and jointly organizes the 2026 Demacia Cup Global Invitational with Huya Live.

Tournament operations

The company’s role covers competition presentation, event operations and the development of League of Legends and VALORANT tournament properties in China. VCT CN records Riot Games and TJ Sports as co-organizers; event contracting may be handled by a separate production company.[4][5] The 2026 Demacia Cup marks an expansion of that work into an international invitational format.
