- —Albus Dumbledore, commenting on the certainty of his imminent death[src]
The Chudley Cannons are a British Quidditch team that plays in the British and Irish Quidditch League. They wear bright orange robes and their logo is two black Cs and a speeding cannonball. They have won the League Cup twenty-one times, with the last time being in 1892, and many consider their glory days to be over.

[edit] Motto
The club motto was "We shall conquer" until 1972, when it was changed to "Let's all just keep our fingers crossed and hope for the best".
[edit] Behind the scenes
- They are Ron Weasley's favourite team. The bedspread, walls, and ceiling of his room at the Burrow were all decorated in a "violent shade of orange", and posters of the team's players covered nearly every inch of the walls.
- J. K. Rowling, when asked if the Chudley Cannons would ever win a game, replied that "they'd need to replace the entire team and down several cauldrons of Felix Felicis."
