Quidditch game inspired by British author JK Rowling’s Harry Potter novels will officially be called quadball. This was announced by the International Quidditch Federation (IQA).
The new name will reflect the number of balls used in the game and the number of playing positions. So in this game, as in the Quidditch book, quaffle balls, two bludgers and a snitch are used, and players play the roles of hunter, hitter, goalie and catcher on the field. A play from the Harry Potter books was adapted into real life in 2005.
The reason for the name change is that the trademark for the word “Quidditch” is owned by Warner Bros. It was owned by the movie studio and criticized by JK Rowling. said the organization.
Joanne Rowling
That’s why Joanne Rowling was repeatedly criticized and accused of transphobia for her statements on Twitter (blocked in Russia).
Many actors, including Emma Watson, who took part in the filming of the Harry Potter movie, as well as lead actor Daniel Radcliffe, did not participate in Rowling’s position. The actor said that he can return to work in the Harry Potter films only if Rowling does not appear in the film adaptation.
