Match Analysis: EQC 2019 Quarter Final- Titans Paris vs Antwerp QC

Hello and happy new year! Firstly, apologies for the lack of content, I'm aware it's been a LONG time since I've published an article. The plan is to get back to producing at least one per month but as always, I can't promise anything. So, to get things going in 2020, I thought I'd take a look at one of the biggest matches of 2019 in European quidditch. 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.

Guest writer Nick De Leu (Player & Coach for Ghent Gargoyles and player with the Belgian Gryffins- the Belgian national team) reflects on Antwerp's influence on European quidditch at the end of their 7 year existence while also taking into consideration various perspectives on the Dodos' legacy from prominent figures in the European quidditch community.  Extinction event: remembering how Antwerp QC helped shape European quidditch by Nick De Leu Antwerp QC A celebrating winning EQC 2017. Photo Credit- Antwerp Quidditch Club/Bruggeling Quidditch Photography The end of Antwerp QC was a bombshell for European Quidditch. The generation that claimed EQC 2017 and formed the core of a Belgian squad that earned silver at World Cup 2018 is calling it quits, and there are no successors to continue the franchise. But the team will be re...
