The Total Quidditch. Podcast- Episode 12: Aaron Veale

Self-Awareness, Basketball and L eading from the front- Aaron Veale In more of a personal episode for our host, we speak with Fraser's long time teammate Aaron Veale. Starting off as a plucky 5ft 7 kid rocking up to his first quidditch session at Southampton in a Portsmouth shirt, Aaron talks through his career progression including his early success winning BQC 2015 with the Anchors all the way through to his captaincy year in which he redefined himself as a short yet very capable shooting keeper that pushed the UK game in new directions. We also talk through his initial breakthrough with Team UK at European Games 2015, his self-doubt in terms of finding his role within a team, how his background in Basketball has transferred to quidditch as well as his experience playing with Werewolves of London.  Photo Credit- Ajantha Abey Quidditch Photography Thanks as always to our listeners and to those submitting questions for the mailbag.

Rivalries are undeniably what makes sport so compelling and in quidditch they don't come much bigger than the one between Titans Paris and Antwerp QC A. The two sides have faced off against each other on multiple occasions over the past few years not just as themselves but also as France and Belgium respectively with their players making up much of the core of both national teams. With both teams topping their groups after Day 1, sadly they were fated to meet prematurely in the quarter final rather than meeting in the EQC final like they did in 2016 and 2018. Considering the Titans contingent have overall do...
