Brand New Quadball UK Executive Volunteers!
We're excited to announce the three brand new faces to the Quadball UK Executive Management Team, all of whom are stepping up and into their new positions as we gear into the 2025/2026 season.
Maria Mahoney joins us as our new Head of Volunteers, succeeding the incredible Milo To.
Cornelia Tzana will be taking charge of our communications as Head of Media, replacing Gemma Gedling. And finally, the excellent Thomas Ng is joining us as the QuadballUK Secretary, after Gemma Wooliscroft stepped down earlier this year.

Maria Mahoney, Head of Volunteers
Maria joins QUK after an incredible volunteering with Oxford University Quadball Club. After joining OUQC as a fresher, Maria quickly went on to volunteer in almost every role for the club - including OUQC Captain in 2023, and club President in 2024 and 2025.
Maria now plays for Birmingham Badgers, as well as holding several appearances for Team Ireland at both European Games and the IQA World Cup.
Her experience as a volunteer and a leader in the community will be invaluable, and we cannot wait to see what she achieves during her tenure.
I’m really excited to be joining QUK as Head of Volunteers!
Quadball has been such a big part of my life throughout my degree, and now that I am finished, I’m excited to give back to the community that has given me so many unforgettable memories and friendships.

Cornelia Tzana, Head of Media
Cornelia brings a wealth of marketing and media experience to the role, having worked with major entertainment brands such as Disney and SEGA, as well as smaller grassroots organisations like The Leigh Purtill Ballet Company. Over the past two years, she has managed the Werewolves of London’s social media presence and led the team’s wider media initiatives, including the creation of digital and print materials for the 2024 IQA European Games in London.
An experienced quadball player, Cornelia began her career in 2013 at Emerson College in the US, back when off-pitch seeking was still part of the game. She then spent six years with The Lost Boys, helping the team reach the Final Four at the US Nationals. Since relocating to London in 2022, she has been a core member of the Werewolves of London and most recently represented Team England at the 2025 Quadball Nations Cup.
I am thrilled to be joining Quadball UK as Head of Media and I'm excited to help spread the good word of quadball to more people!

Thomas Ng, QuadballUK Secretary
Thomas has only been in the sport for a year, and is already making waves since debuting with Oxford University Quadball Club as a fresher.
Alongside joining the Executive Management Team as our new Secretary, Thomas has also taken on a role as Clubs Officer within QuadballUK, the Head Coach role for OUQC, debuted for Team Hong Kong at the 2025 IQA World Cup, AND founded a new London quadball club (the London Aye Ayes) all within his first year.
His insight and energy on the Executive Team is wonderful to have, and we can't wait to work alongside (and at the rate he's going probably for him)
Having started playing Quadball less than a year ago, I'm very excited (but also a little nervous) to be involved in giving back to a community that I've enjoyed being a part of so much over the last year, and one that I hope to learn a lot more about in the future.

There are some great things happening in QuadballUK, and we're excited and grateful to those who commit their time and expertise into making so much of it happen.
