The British and Irish Quidditch League Headquarters was a division of the Department of Magical Games and Sports on Level 7 of the Ministry of Magic. The British and Irish Quidditch League fell under the authority of the division.

The division was probably founded around 1674, as that was the year the League was founded.[1] The head of the division and the entire department was Ludo Bagman, until 1995 when he was forced to flee from goblins after losing several bets.

Description[]

In 1995, the division seemed untidy and laid back, with posters of the favourite Quidditch teams of employees displayed on the wall.

Job[]

Known work[]

The British and Irish Quidditch League fell under the authority of this division. The division organised the annual competition, arranging the matches and the players who participated.

The division banned Appleby Arrows supporters from firing arrows into the air with their wands in 1894 after referee Nugent Potts was pierced through the nose with one.

Possible work[]

As to maintain anti-Muggle security, it was probably this division that decided that it was best to have only thirteen teams playing in the League, and probably dismissed the others.

It was presumably this division that suspended the Falmouth Falcons Beaters, Kevin and Karl Broadmoor, fourteen times between 1958 and 1969 for their overly violent behaviour.

Behind the scenes[]

  • It's unknown where the headquarters was located before the founding of the Department of Magical Games and Sports in 1810s, and where the headquarters was located before the founding of the Ministry itself in 1707.
