So you’ve discovered quadball… now what?
Whether you stumbled across US Quadball online, saw a game in person, or heard about “that sport with the brooms”, you’re in the right place! Quadball is a fast-paced, full-contact, and ridiculously fun sport—but figuring out how to join a team can feel like catching a flag runner in your first game.
Don’t worry—we’ve got you. We’ll help connect you with a team near you so you can get on the field, make new friends, and experience the sport for yourself.
MEMBERSHIP
USQ memberships (team, individual, etc.) expire on June 30. Teams and players may register any time on or between Sept. 1 and June 30. Memberships are non-refundable and non-transferable.
ELIGIBILITY REQUIREMENT
US Quadball membership is open to teams and individuals residing within the United States of America. Teams and individuals residing in other countries should seek to register with their respective quadball national governing body.
In order to be eligible to compete, at least one of the following must be true of the player:
Hold U.S. citizenship
Currently living in the U.S. and not actively participating as part of another league at the time of USQ member registration
Have played quadball only in the U.S.
Individuals who have split residency and live part-time in the United States may be granted an exception to compete on a USQ team on a case-by-case basis. This includes if they participated with another national governing body for part of the season. Exceptions will be based on proof of split residency, extenuating circumstances, and discussion with the other country's national governing body as applicable. Requests for an exception must be submitted to membership@usquadball.org. Requests for an exception will be evaluated within two weeks of submission, and the exception must be granted before the player registers for USQ membership.
If, throughout the season, it is discovered that a team or individual is not located within the USA, then that team or individual will be at that point barred from the league without a refund or eligibility to participate in further events. Any official games played by this team throughout the season will be disqualified.
COLLEGE MEMBERSHIP
A college team is composed of a group of students from a single school. A college team does not need to have a formal affiliation with their school to be registered as a college team. However, those teams with recognition from a school must compete in the college division and register as a college team. Forms of recognition may include:
Teams with the school name incorporated into their team name
Recognized student organizations
Club sports
Grant or funding recipients
Recipients of discounted practice or event space
A school may have more than one official college team, provided they meet the requirements above.

ENROLLMENT VERIFICATION REQUIREMENT
All players on a collegiate team must attend the same school unless they participate in the joint team development program. All students, including undergraduate and postgraduate students, of a university are permitted to play on their school’s collegiate team. Faculty, staff, and community members who are not enrolled in classes will not be allowed to play on a school’s collegiate team. A student from a college without an official team may not compete with a college team from another school unless they have been approved for a joint team.
Enrollment will be captured when a member upgrades their membership. Teams may also provide contact info for a collegiate administrator to help with the process. Enrollment will only be required to be submitted once per year.
