While quidditch gets its inspiration from Harry Potter, Chicago United want it to be known as more than just the "magical sport." Recently the U.S. Quidditch League as a whole underwent a name change from Quidditch to Quadball. It was in an effort to distance themselves from derogatory comments made by the creator of Harry Potter, J.K. Rowling. The U.S. League saw the name change as an opportunity to rebrand the sport into something new, unique, growing and open to all players.
"It took me back to my soccer years. No matter how competitive we can get, were always hanging out after games," head coach Dany Yaacoub said.
