Team USA Finds Quidditch Head Coach!

by Lauren Bisgard · August 22, 2017

US Quidditch has added a few members to its staff in the membership department. Michael “Yada” Parada will be the new Head Coach for Team USA, and Amanda Dallas will be the National Team Coordinator.

 

 

Both Parada and Dallas have plenty of experience with the sport, both of them not only playing on their college teams but having leadership roles on them as well.

Parada played quidditch at Penn State University and was the head coach all three years he was on the team. He helped bring his team to multiple Quidditch World Cups while he was leading them.

Dallas played for New York University. She was captain of the team for the 2012–2013 season, helping her team advance far into World Cup VI.

In 2014, after the two both graduated college, the pair founded the quidditch team the Warriors together. The team has since qualified for and reached bracket play in the following three US Quidditch Cups, even making it to the finals of one.

MuggleNet’s SnitchCenter would like to congratulate both Michael Parada and Amanda Dallas on their new positions! With these two helping to lead Team USA, there’s no doubt that the team will be successful.

When Arthur Weasley takes Harry Potter to the Ministry of Magic, they must first dial a secret code into a telephone keypad. He enters the number 62442. The letters underneath those numbers on a standard mobile phone spell out the word “magic.”

Potter Quote

“Well – it’s just that you seem to be laboring under the delusion that I am going to – what is the phrase? – come quietly. I am afraid I am not going to come quietly at all, Cornelius. I have absolutely no intention of being sent to Azkaban. I could break out, of course – but what a waste of time, and frankly, I can think of a whole host of things I would rather be doing.”
