University of Texas Austin

Somewhere out there is a school that can teach you how to fly--where a certain magic runs through students' veins and one sport dominates the minds of its followers. Somewhere out there is a school for adults with unique talents.
Obviously this school is Hogwarts.
But unknown to most people, JK Rowling modeled this infamous institution after our own University of Texas at Austin and, therefore, we think that it is only right that we uphold her literary masterpiece and creative interpretation of the magical sport of Quidditch by forming our own team. It's high time we represent our colors with pride.
So if you love Harry Potter, if you love yelling like a maniac, if you love the smell of turf stains along the edge of your flowing cape and the sting of bludger on your face or the texture of ingrained wood on your palms, then, for the love of Dumbledore and all that is magical, come to our meetings and play for the Honor and Glory that is burnt orange and white.

We encourage anyone to come out who is even the least bit apprehensive. Remember, Quidditch is a relatively new sport and most of our current members have not been playing for more than 2 years.
