WELCOME TO QUIDDITCH Quidditch is a gender-integrated, full contact sport that was created in 2005 by students at Middlebury College in Vermont. Though based on the fictional sport from J.K. Rowling’s Harry Potter series, the real- life version of the sport has come into its own, played by over 400 university and community teams across six continents. Quidditch has a unique set of rules that include elements from rugby, basketball, and dodgeball. All players must keep a broom between their legs at all times. A quidditch team consists of a roster of 21 athletes, six (or seven, depending on the game time) of whom are on the field at any one time. Each game is officiated by a group of referees. While the game can appear chaotic to the casual observer, quidditch is an exciting sport to watch and is even more fun to play. Photo Credit: JYK Photography

If the score is tied after the hoops found in their opponent’s snitch catch, the game proceeds half of the pitch. Goals are worth into overtime. The average quidditch 10 points each, and chasers may game lasts between 25 and 40 move the quaffle up and down the minutes. Quidditch is a sport field by running with it, passing it to teammates, or kicking it. Each team also has one keeper who defends the hoops, in addition to performing which is inherently the role of a chaser. accepting, and does To help on defense and to bolster offense, there are two beaters who not require players to use dodgeballs called “bludgers” conform to the gender binary. to disrupt the flow of the game by “knocking out” other players.

7 BIDDING OVERVIEW Quidditch Canada is seeking bids for its three major tournaments in each of the 2018-19 and 2019-2020 seasons. Both indoor and outdoor venues will be considered. Outdoor bids must include historical weather data. Quidditch Canada encourages you to bid for multiple weekends and multiple seasons at both indoor and outdoor facilities. There is no priority given to any geographic region (East/Central/West) for the National Championship in any given season. The Eastern and Western Regional Championship cannot be held on the same weekend in any given season, so flexibility with proposed dates is appreciated. Quidditch Canada will prioritize awarding events for the 2018-19 season by July 2018, and as such, consideration for the 2019-20 season events may be extended. However, if truly outstanding 2019-20 bids are received within the initial timeframe, they will be selected by July 2018 with no further opportunity for additional bids. Details of this are provided in the “Bid Submission Instructions” section on page 17. Photo Credit: Rike Reimer
