Is the tournament open to all teams?

The Regional Championship is only open to Official Member teams who are Tournament or Basic members of the IQA, which have paid their dues and submitted their rosters. Any team may register as an Official Member! For more information, please see our Membership Plans.

Can high school teams play?

High school teams will not be participating in the main Regional Championship, as they will be attending their own championship tournament in the spring. However, high school teams are more than encouraged to attend the event and join in the thriving Midwest quidditch community!

What's the registration deadline?

Teams must register for the tournament via this form by October 14. Teams MUST submit official membership dues before October 7th to be counted towards regional allocation of the World Cup spots (see below).

How do teams qualify for the World Cup?

Each region will be allocated a number of slots in the 60-team World Cup field based on regional Official Member team density on October 7th. A certain number of slots are also reserved for each region equal to the number of teams from that region that placed in the top 16 at World Cup V (the Midwest will receive three additional spots in this manner—thanks to Kansas, Michigan State, and Minnesota!)

Can teams attend multiple Regional Championships?

Due to the nature of Regional Championships as qualifying tournaments for the World Cup, each team may participate in only one Regional each season.

Can my Midwest team attend a different Regional?

You'd be missing out! Teams may apply for a waiver to attend a different Regional Championship. These applications will be evaluated by the IQA's Gameplay and Teams Departments on a case-by-case basis. To obtain a copy of the waiver application, please email Luke Zak.

Where can teams register?

Teams can register using this form. Teams will be contacted with details and receive further information as it becomes available. Please feel free to contact the Teams Liaison Austin Booher with any additional questions.

How can we book hotel rooms?
