We are Olympians QC. We are a  community Quidditch club that came into being in the early Summer of  2019, when a group of graduating and post-graduate quidditch players  primarily from the University of Manchester decided to set up our own  community team in the North of England. We put out feelers and were soon  joined by a large contingency of graduate and postgraduate players from  Leeds, as well as many older players from around the North.

As a  new team set up by older players for older players, we reviewed the  condition of the sport in our local area (North of England); and we  noticed a decline in the number of players in local University teams. We  then decided to create and implement our club’s ethos: We love playing  Quidditch and want to play against competitive teams. We can only  compete against competitive teams if there are teams to play against,  therefore we must do everything we can as a community team to help  maintain and grow our local Quidditch community.

To do this we  offered our help and knowledge to aid with local clubs freshers fairs  and freshers sessions, as well as hosting and joining a number of joint  training sessions with other clubs where we shared advice and tactics if  requested. We also hosted the Odyssey Freshers tournament prior to  regionals in order to give the new intake at university teams a chance  to play competitively in a situation with less pressure attached to it.

Our  first outing as a team was at Northern 2019, where we managed to top  our group on day 1 and then finish second overall claiming our first  medal as a club. Qualifying for EQT we managed to finish 4th, claiming a  top seed at European Quidditch Cup second division.

Unfortunately we weren’t able to put ourselves in the European  cauldron just yet, but we are very proud of our achievements so far and  hope to replicate them in the coming season!
