Hello Everyone!

This year, we are happy to announce that UCLA Quadball, formerly known as Quidditch, will be headed to the US Quadball Cup 2023 in Valley Forge, Pennsylvania. The competitive event will be held on April 15-16, and our team is excited to attend a new, eastern location for the Nationals tournament. Previously, your UCLA Quadball team qualified for the D1 seed at Nationals, defeating competitive colleges such as SHSU and Michigan University, and facing off Harvard in the sweet 16 final board. This year, we welcomed some talented, new recruits after saying goodbye to a large group of star players from our 2021-2022 team. With many new faces and the return of our stellar coach, Christian Krieger, our team’s play style has been revamped with a calculating Beater line, all-star Seekers, and some elusive Chasers. We have faced club and collegiate teams so far in our 2022-2023 season, and we are looking forward to having another opportunity to represent UCLA Bruins at the USQ Cup to really show them what the west coast is about!

In order to attend such a distant location, our UCLA Quadball team is once again asking for your generosity and support to help us fundraise money for Nationals. Our 21-player roster needs your help with travel, housing, and tournament fees, and any donation amount would greatly help our team financially. Last year, we passed our goal of $6,000, and excess donations helped sustain our team for future years with new equipment, other tournament fees, and club costs. This year, we have established a new goal of $9,000 to help offset the higher cost of attendance for this year’s tournament. Our continued growth and playing opportunities on the pitch wouldn’t be possible without your tremendous help towards our program. You can find details on contributing to our new campaign at the following link: spark.ucla.edu/UCLAQuadball

From all of us on the UCLA Quadball team, we thank you for your generous support over the years, and we would greatly appreciate any donation amount that you can make at this time. We would love to make our supporters proud. Go Bruins!

Thank you for your support of UCLA Quidditch!

The team is back home from an exciting nationals in Salt Lake City! While we lost in a close and contentious Sweet 16 game to Harvard, we couldn't be more proud of our team. We went undefeated across three hard-fought games on Saturday and played a close game against #5 ranked Harvard. We couldn't have done it without your support!

Thank you and see you next year!
