Last year we put out a call for IQA players, fans, and supporters to nominate couples in their lives who met through quidditch. The response we got was overwhelming, and we featured some amazing couples on our website who were all united through a fantastic game. This year, we’re doing it again.
Have a cute “quiddcest” couple on your team? Maybe your star seeker caught the eye of a fellow student? Perhaps you yourself were lucky enough to meet someone special in your life on the pitch…
Nominate your teammates, friends, people you look at enviously from far away, the subjects of your facebook stalking, even yo’selves!
HOW TO NOMINATE:
Email info@internationalquidditch with the subject line VDAY and please include:
- A paragraph description of the couple, who they are, how they met, etc. Humor is welcomed if not encouraged, but only respectful and sincere submissions will be published.
- A photograph of the two together (or separate if you can’t find a good couples photo)
Click here to look at our submissions last year!

The fact that Lillian moved away from George makes me disagree.

Ambition/career versus a relationship. It gets sticky. But they decided to stay together through it all. The fact that they’re STILL dating long distance, even though she had to move, makes me agree even more. I also wonder if you have any knowledge as to why she moved. I’m glad she hasn’t seen this, it’s kind of insulting.

I’m not going to argue about it, but just suffice it to say I think I know their relationship a lot better than you.
