Fun, News

A recently designated selection committee is in the process of choosing a U.S. Quidditch team, reports examiner.com.  The team will compete in the International Quidditch Association’s World Cup, to be held this summer.

The selection committee was chosen by U.S. Quidditch staff “from a pool of applicants who were required to submit an essay about their interest in the committee and its responsibilities, experience with Quidditch, and vision for the team.”

For a list of qualifications and to apply to be part of the team, visit the IQA website. The next application deadline is for coaches and is on Monday, Jan. 11 at 11:59pm EST.

The IQA’s World Cup will be held in Frankfurt, Germany, on July 23rd and 24th, and will host Quidditch teams from all over the world.

Edit: The original article erroneously stated that members of the U.S. Quidditch team had been designated; however, all members are still being decided upon. Apologies for the mistake.
