Three days left until my team hosts our first tournament, the Beachside Brawl.
We have gone from a small group being helped at our first practice by UCLA players, to dominating our first tournament thanks almost entirely to athletic ability, to surviving a 16 hour car trip to play in below-zero…
My friend and I are making a muggle quidditch for our math project.
Right
Its called broomball
And when were finished with it
I will update picture and all the rulles
THEN WE ARE GOING TO PLAY IT.
OMG YOU GUYSI hate to burst your bubble but: http://www.internationalquidditch.org
its not like quidditch, its called broomball, and its a backwards quidditch
Broomball is also a thing.

Naming their teams something Harry Potter-related.
YEAH, I SAID IT.Something desperately Harry Potter-related, I would say. I enjoy a good, clever reference to our forefather.
Man, let people do what they…
How are the Lost Boys Harry Potter related? I thought it was a Peter Pan reference.
The lost boys was in the seventh book, when snape, Harry, and voldemort were called the Lost boys because their only true home was hogwarts.
I guarantee you that Mohlman didn’t know that.
Too Nonexistent To Be In His League
I have the biggest quidcrush on Steve DiCarlo from the Lost Boys. I think he’s super attractive even though he’s quite skinny! Dat body. And his quidditch skills make me swoon. But I would never say that out loud because I’ve never even had the guts to have a real conversation with him. Maybe I’ll grow a (female!) pair and tell him one day. That is if he’s still single years from now when that happens.
Don’t worry; he will be.
Quidditch is at a crossroads of sorts. We just had the highest level of competition ever seen at a World Cup, and there were very few “cupcake” teams at the tournament. On the other hand, while the level of competition is high across the board, the standards of personal conduct at World Cup were…
This, 100 million times. And I’m not even the best sportsman, by a long shot. But I know what I need to work on with sportsmanship, and actively want to improve. That should be everyone. Best place to start is find the person/group whom you consider to be the epitome of a good sport, and figure out what you need to change to be like that. For me, that epitome is UCLA.
am i the only one that felt this weekend that if you weren’t the Lost Boys or UCLA, people from the west generally didn’t give too much of a shit about your team? except for the other teams who were in your same boat (ASU + USC foreva)
like, unless you were being used in a…
Because I wasn’t there. I fanboy all the West teams. I freaked when I heard you guys beat Emerson, and I absolutely flipped over NAU making the 8. If I were there, I would’ve spent the entire weekend priding all over the West.
Found out at a tournament this weekend that members of an opposing team were intentionally targeting myself and another player (two of the smallest players and two of the only three girls), not to shut us down, but to actually injure us and get us taken out of…
You can submit this kind of information to the IQA Gameplay Department if you would like them to investigate the situation further and possibly respond with disciplinary action.
So, it’s time to start taking a look at these brackets and pools to decipher the impossible code of who will take home this year’s World Cup title in Kissimmee. This has taken me I don’t know how much time, but way too much away from studying for midterms or writing a 6 page…
You have ASU taking third in their pool, and then…being the 12th seed overall? How does that one work?
I now realize I made that mistake when calculating my point diffs for seeding- I gave ASU the +40 diff instead of a -40. Shit. My bad
*slow clap*
