The Game of Quidditch:

"Muggle Quidditch," or "Ground Quidditch," began in 2005 as an intramural league at Middlebury College in Vermont. The rules were adapted from JK Rowling's Harry Potter novels by Alexander Manshel, the first Quidditch Commissioner.

The UMFK Quidditch team is a part of the International Quidditch Association (IQA) an organization of over 900 college and high school teams. We practice year round, and are trying to play as many matches as we can.

If you would like to learn more about the game and/or would like to join the team, feel free to show up at the practices (see Practice Schedule to the left), or contact the Team Captain, Oliver Silva at quidditch@umfk.maine.edu.
