The Tutshill Tornados are a Quidditch team that plays in the British and Irish Quidditch League. The team is based in the town of Tutshill, which is located in the west of England, near the Welsh border. Founded in 1520, the team colours and their playing robes are sky blue with a dark blue Double-T on the chest.
The Tornadoes led the league in the autumn of 1995[1], but also saw success in the early part of the 1900s, during which time the Tornados won the League Cup five times in a row, which is a British and Irish Quidditch League record.
In 1921, the Tornadoes recorded the fastest ever win in a League match against the Caerphilly Catapults. Seeker Roderick Plumpton caught the Golden Snitch after three and a half seconds, using a move that became known as the Plumpton Pass.
According to The Quibbler, the Tornadoes had used a combination of torture, blackmail, and illegal broom tampering to win their matches, but as the magazine is a tabloid, it is unknown how much of it is true.
Cho Chang is a supporter of the Tornadoes since she was six years old. However, according to Ron Weasley, many people became fans only when the team started to win, thus resenting them for jumping on the bandwagon.
