Following recent announcements from both Quidditch Europe and the International Quidditch Association, QuidditchUK would like to announce the following clarifications and amendments to our policies for EQC spots, rules amendments, and the 3-max gender rule.

Quidditch Europe announced recently that the UK has been awarded seven spots for EQC Division 1 and two spots for EQC Division 2. QUK have decided to continue awarding a Division 2 spot to the winner of each of the university regional leagues, meaning that the seven Division 1 spots will go to the highest ranked teams from the community league after the completion of community fixture 3. As a reminder, we are intending to do promotion/relegation games at fixture 3 only instead of automatic promotion/relegation.

If a university league regional winner declines their spot, it will be given to the second placed team in their region. If the second placed team declines the spot as well, it will be awarded to the highest ranked community team that does not yet have an EQC spot.

The IQA announced the results of their rule change process recently and QUK will be incorporating these changes in with our existing amendments from 1st October onwards. This means that from 1st October the only differences between the IQA rulebook and what we will use in the UK will be:

- Wider hoop placement and tapping in on middle hoop only

One item that did not pass the IQA rule change process was the proposal to switch to a 3-max gender rule. QUK believes that this change is necessary to progress the principles of the sport but recognises that teams will need some time to prepare for this change. Therefore, we are announcing now that the 3-max gender rule will come into force from the start of the 23/24 season. This gives teams approximately 1 year to make any adjustments they need to ensure that they are able to safely play under this rule. This does not prohibit teams that wish to from voluntarily playing 3-max before the new rule comes into force.

New Gameplay Announcements

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.

After a year in the post, we are sad to say that Alex is stepping down as Vice President.  Alex first came into the position of Vice President whilst still a university student and has since graduated and is stepping away from the role so that she is able to dedicate her time to her job. Thank you Alex for your time in the role and all the hard work you've put towards it! 

With Alex stepping away, this means we are looking for a new Vice President. Alex has the following words to share about the role:

"It’s been an excellent opportunity to build skills for both inside and outside the role and to get more involved with the sport you care about. Building relationships within the community is key to the role and an absolute joy to fulfil as you will get to meet people within and outside of the UK that you never would have otherwise".

If you want to know more about the role, send us an email at volunteers@quidditchuk.org 

If you'd like to apply, just send us an application using the form below!
