We hope both of you take some well-earned rest! 

Lucy and Chazz will be officially stepping down from their roles after the European Games this Summer, which is being hosted in London this year. If you're interested in finding more about the roles you can email us at volunteering@quidditchuk.org and if you're interested in applying, send us your application using the volunteer form below!

Lucy and Chazz Stepping Down From Team Wales

We're pleased to announce that Izzy Brown has been appointed as the next Vice President!

Izzy shared the following words when we asked them about their new role.

"I first joined Quadball in 2020 as a university fresher. I knew I wanted to play a full-contact sport, but being non-binary, I wasn't sure a space like that would exist for me, but then I found Warwick Quadball during my first week, and never looked back! 4 years later, I've been Warwick's media officer, welfare, president, and captain, and as I deliver the club into very capable hands, I want to bring my knowledge and experience of Quadball in the current university league to EMT! I'm really looking forward to working with University teams to support with recruitment and provide them a voice, as well as with Community clubs to help bridge the gap between the two leagues!"

We're excited to have Izzy as part of the team whilst we plan for the next season.

In other exciting news, Izzy isn't the only new addition to the Presidential department. We also have three new roles that are open for applications:

New Vice President and Other Presidential Department Roles

Welcome to new Vice President, Izzy Brown!

Quadball UK and Team England are delighted to announce that our new sponsor for the front of the shirt for the 2024/25 season will be Partners in Health, via author John Green (The Fault in Our Stars, Turtles All the Way Down). 

Partners in Health's mission statement reads in part "Our mission is to provide a preferential option for the poor in health care. By establishing long-term relationships with sister organizations based in settings of poverty, Partners In Health strives to achieve two overarching goals: to bring the benefits of modern medical science to those most in need of them and to serve as an antidote to despair."

John Green said “I am so excited to support this awesome sport and to bring more attention to the essential work of Partners in Health.”

Quadball UK President Dec Ramsay said "I am absolutely thrilled to have John and Rosianna partner with us at this incredible time for Quadball as we look to grow in the 2024/25 season. England will be proudly wearing the Partners in Health logo on their new kits which will debut at the home European Games this summer. We all are united in the importance sport plays in growing communities and we are so excited to start this new partnership!"

The England team will be releasing their new kit, with the Partners in Health logo on the chest, shortly for purchase via VC Ultimate.

New Sponsorship Announced: Partners in Health

This announcement is just the first step as we prepare to host the European Games. For athletes and teams, details such as team and player registration, accommodation, and more will be posted shortly by the IQA. 

To the UK Quadball community, we will need all the help we can get to make this the biggest and best event possible - this is an incredible opportunity to help build the sport and anyone interested in volunteering should get in touch with the IQA or QUK. 

And finally if you are just excited to attend, as we get closer to the event we will share details about tickets, socials, and more. For now, update your calendars - it's going to be a great weekend.
