Geek Faeries 4.1

As we told you on our last post, the big convention called the Geek Faeries was cancelled. Paris Frogs and Lille Black Snitches and us were supposed to hold exposition games and introductions there. But well, fate was not going to hold quidditch players back! And indeed, our three teams gathered last saturday at the student housing of la cité universitaire de Paris.

When everyone arrived, we started doing warms up together. Then, we mixted the three teams together to play friendly games. While part of us was playing, the other part was taking pictures, chatting, and making acquaintance. We were all in the best of mood. Some people who were new to quidditch had come along to have a go at our sport and we also had our friends from the French Harry Potter website La Gazette du Sorcier. Thanks to them, pictures, videos and informations were given to the Geek Faeries so that their audience could follow us.

We then ended the day with a little tournament opposing each team against each other.

After that we didn't stop the party there. The Geek Faeries convention was supposed to start with a Yule Ball and we re-created it. The Black Snitches and the Phenixes spent the night listening to wizard rock, chatting and learning to know each other better, along with our friends from the Gazette.

And finally on sunday the two teams gathered for a last small practice, and have a last happy afternoon together before we said goodbye to our guests.
