My Version Of A World Cup (Quidditch World Cup Part 1)

This weekend will be the fifth annual Quidditch World Cup and I will be volunteering there.  I am so excited!
Here is some background on the World Cup and the IQA in general

• The Quidditch World Cup is organized by the IQA or International Quidditch Association  (here is a link to there website)
• "Muggle Quidditch" was invented by Xander Manshel while he was attending Middlebury
• The IQA was created in 2010
• It is now run mainly by Alex Benepe, a board of directors and a group of volunteers
• More history here
• The IQA's mission is to foster Creativity, Community and Competition

• The IQA has a full series of rules which I won't cover, but if you are interested here is the rulebook
• Just so you know, Quidditch is BRUTAL, it is no game for the faint of heart or the weak of constitution

Tickets are still on sale if you think you can come.  If not, come next year.  There will be more during (possibly) and after (definitely) the World Cup, because I will be working both Saturday and Sunday as a team liaison.

If you can't attend the World Cup you can watch the live stream here (I am 90% sure).

You can also follow World Cup updates at @QuiddWorldCup and the IQA at @MuggleQuidditch.

I am super excited, and will try to have pictures but I am really bad at this type of stuff.
