Video Link
[edit]I found a CNN.com video on Muggle Quidditch--it doesn't add much information but I'm wondering it would be worth it to add a link at the bottom of the page:

Muggle Quidditch
[edit]Suggestion is because, while there are a couple of references talking about Muggle Quidditch, they make Quidditch itself more notable, not the muggle variation. I think that a trimmed version of this article would be a great addition to the Quidditch article and will make it more Notable. --Lord Opeth (talk) 18:23, 21 June 2008 (UTC)
- As 3 days passed and there were no opinions against the merge, the article now redirects to Quidditch, to make that article more notable.--Lord Opeth (talk) 03:20, 24 June 2008 (UTC)
Rules
[edit]Would a section on rules be better served here or in the International Quidditch Association page? Vanberg (talk) 02:18, 17 November 2011 (UTC)
I think this whole article needs an overhaul.
[edit]I feel that this page should relate mostly to gameplay and some slight history of Muggle Quidditch, such as expanding on the rules and positions and what changes have been made to adapt the game to land-based play. The expanded paragraphs about the World Cup should be moved to the IQA page, the rules and positions section expanded, and the paragraphs about specific teams and leagues should be either eliminated entirely or added to the IQA page ONLY IF they are going to add similar paragraphs for all other teams, leagues, and regions in the IQA (aka get rid of it). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.127.252.180 (talk) 23:32, 5 January 2012 (UTC)
- I wonder if you'll get this, seeing as this was posted in January...but depending on how much information is available, I could see the World Cup being it's own page, similar to the FIFA World Cup. Scb3 (talk) 09:48, 10 June 2012 (UTC)
- Actually, both pages needed some reorganizing. I moved the World Cup details to the IQA page, moved World Cup summary info to the Muggle Quidditch page, and edited the section hierarchies to improve the flow of both pages. Erusse estelinya (talk) 19:57, 21 February 2013 (UTC)

== Documentary movie on history of MQ & IQA under production ==
Just read info on the following Kickstarter project: [http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/2050840729/mudbloods-a-feature-documentary
Mudbloods:A Feature Documentary]
Here is an excerpt describing the film project:
In 2005
at Middlebury College in Vermont a small group of creative students decided to do the impossible; adapt quidditch into a real-life sport. Only a few years later quidditch has exploded on over 300 college campuses across a dozen countries, and has quickly become a grassroots sporting phenomenon.
Mudbloods is a feature documentary that captures the resilient spirit of the people who have made quidditch a real-life sport.
THE STORY
Mudbloods follows the UCLA quidditch team on their journey to the 5th Annual Quidditch World Cup in New York City in 2011. The film is a culmination of 2 years spent documenting the fearless, bold individuals who dedicate their lives to the sport of quidditch, including the entrepreneurial force behind the International Quidditch Association (IQA), the primary governing body of this fledgling sport.
It’s a sports doc unlike anything you’ve ever seen because it’s a sportyou could have never imagined, until now.
Since the funding drive has already closed successfully I do not feel posting this info here is promoting anything except awareness of a possible source for this article. For the record I have no investment in
this project and in fact was completely unaware that there was a "real
world" quidditch sport before today. 66.97.209.215 ([[User talk:66.97.209.215|talk]]) 08:05, 20 December 2013 (UTC)
Not a world cup
[edit]Man, Americans just don't get international sport, do they? To be a world cup, you have to have national teams - so the USA gets one team, and Bermuda gets one team as well. (Hopefully there is no GB team as Britain is not a nation) -MacRùsgail (talk) 20:42, 17 February 2014 (UTC)
Underdogs
[edit]The "Northern Direwolves" are the famous underdogs. The Northern Direwolves Quidditch Club was established in 2013 as one of six teams of the Victorian Quidditch Association in Australia.
Lianna Slczynski documents the progress of the Northern Direwolves Quidditch Club in the form of video, photography, facebook, blogspot, graphic art and merchandise design.
Lauren De Avocado, Hussain Al-Qalaf, Nic Hirst, Kat Young and Scott Pilgrim Cody help promote the VQA (recording quidditch games, creating documentaries, photographing players, creating quidditch sports cards, designing jerseys and merchandise). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 49.185.124.52 (talk) 23:26, 31 May 2014 (UTC)
