My district is crazy good at sports we have basketball, football, soccer, track and field (really just softball throw nothing else for field), and volleyball teams for 4th, 5th, and 6th graders, they train the 8th graders hardcore for high school varsity. We are trained since elementary school for sports like thats the biggest thing we have sports. We are the best in sports in our area and my friend and i were joking around one day and I said "hey i bet if we added Quidditch we’d be awesome at that too!" Now my friend wants to add Quidditch the muggle version. There are rules for like no joke could we get it or is like too many sports for our district (we do EVERY sport except cricket and croquet cause we’re American) would they let us? We would probably dominate at it we have huge HP fans.
we have tennis and its the best in our region(of course) and same with competitive cheer. and we’re in a 35A school it’s pretty big
we tried to have a quidditch team at my school, but not enough people showed up for the initial thingy, so it disbanded:(
BUT, my school is really small, so it could just be that. but we werent gonna have real matches, just scrimmages against ourselves… so i dunno if you could do it.
also my school is really open to new ideas/clubs, so idk if yours would be so allowing…
good luck though! quidditch sounds like it would be awesome!

Travel
NCAA football consists of just 12 games in 13 weeks. But let’s face it, it’s not all about football. There are other sports to consider.
For example, the Texas Longhorn baseball team played over 50 games against over 20 opponents. The farthest they traveled was Columbia, Mo., which is 800 miles by road.
Imagine when they have to play the Washington Huskies. That’s around 2,100 miles. That’s a long way to go for a baseball game.
Throw in men’s basketball, track and field, swimming and diving, golf, and tennis, plus women’s basketball, softball, tennis, volleyball, rowing, track and field, and all the others, and you’ve inconvenienced the entire athletic division.
Not to mention the parents and fans.
In the SEC, the driving distance would be around 1,000 miles tops, and that’s to Gainesville, Fla.
Weather
It’s damn cold in the Pacific Northwest and Big Ten territory October through December. Do you really want to send all those Southern boys, family, and fans to sit in an open stadium with a -10 degree windchill factor?
There’s a reason the good bowl games are held in the South and California.
It’s warm.
Joining the Big Ten or the Pac-10 only puts your football team at a disadvantage when it comes to away games.
Geography
Correct me if I’m wrong, but doesn’t the Pac in Pac-10 stand for Pacific? Good luck moving Texas and Oklahoma to the left coast. You’d be forever the outsider in the Pac-10. But the jokes should be good.
The Big Ten is no better. Let’s not forget our roots here. We’re Southerners. We belong down South. The deeper the better.
Imagine the influx of carpetbaggers when the Big Ten Network starts airing your games. If for no other reason, consider geographical pride when choosing which conference to join.
Recruiting
Texas is already losing top recruits to the SEC. Always have and always will. Do you want to start losing even more to the Pac-10 and Big Ten schools? Because it will happen.
You may start losing even more recruits to the SEC if the kids don’t want to play in the other two conferences.
Competition
Do you really want to be stuck playing a crippled USC, the Arizonas, UCLA, either Washington team, Iowa, Minnesota, Purdue, Wisconsin, and Ohio? If so, you’ll be the new bully on the block.
Your teams will only get better by playing Alabama, LSU, Florida, Georgia, Arkansas, Tennessee, Auburn, and South Carolina. Four of these teams have won BCS championships.
Prestige
The Big 12 South has always been under the impression that they were in the best conference, period. Except for one pesky fact: That honor goes to the SEC.
Well, now you have your chance. If the Big 12 South is indeed that strong, then prove it in the conference that has won half of all the BCS championships, including the last four. This is your chance to man up.
Tommy Tuberville
Who wouldn’t want to see coach Tuberville get another shot at Nick Saban? I don’t care what anybody says, if Tuberville had gotten a seventh straight win against Alabama, Gene Chizik would still be in Iowa.
Better yet, Tommy Tuberville vs. Auburn. Imagine the hype surrounding that game. It would become an automatic rivalry that could last beyond Tuberville’s tenure at Texas Tech.
Who in the SEC wouldn’t watch that game?
Conclusion
Money isn’t everything.
Well, maybe to some. But I say let’s get above that fray. If there is going to be a conference realignment, let’s do it to make football better.
Better for the athletes, better for the parents, better for the fans.
And who’s to say that with the addition of Oklahoma, Oklahoma State, Texas, Texas A&M, Texas Tech, and Baylor, the SEC wouldn’t be the king of the machine that drives college sports these days?
What do you think? Is the fall of the big 12 good or bad?
To me, it is bad. Weather, Extra money being poured out.
The Conferences were made so that colleges would be is a close distance for games. This is just completely stupid. Then they’re thinking about going into a Playoff system? Wtf.
VERY TRUE! The time zones will mess with the games, true fans like me would love to see.
True, why have a "super conference" when the only "good" team in the pac 10 the past few years have been a troubled USC program and a soon to be troubled Oregon program. And look at the big 12.
Team ranked # 2
Texas Tech ranked in the top 10 in 09 or 08
Oklahoma always making it to a bowl game
Oklahoma St. Coming up, they played great this past season!!
And Jesus, look at how well Nebraska did against Texas. The Big 12 was right up there with the SEC, now what were playin with troubled Programs.

Hi, Ive been playing softball for 6 years on my local rec team. My parents would never let me go on a travel team cause they didnt have time to take me places. I think im pretty good but I have a feeling the girls on the travel teams are better and will be trying out too. I guess i’m not very good at trying out for things cause I already tried out for cheer, basketball, and the flag team and I didnt make any. My school is one of the best at athletics and win almost all conferences (just to show that people are very good at sports at my school). Do you think i have what it takes and what should I do to improve myself?
u can practice w/ the travel ball girls and c if they will help u out

ESPY Winners Sara Tucholsky, Mallory Holtman & Liz Wallace – Best Moment in Sports (2008)
On 26 April 2008 at a college softball game in the Great Northwest Athletic Conference between the Central Washington University Wildcats and the Western Oregon University Wolves an act of sportsmanship occurred that had to be seen to be believed.
As a consequence Sara Tucholsky, Mallory Holtman and Liz Wallace all won ESPN’s 2008 ESPY Best Moment award for their selfless act of sportsmanship…
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Best_Moment_ESPY_Award
After Wolves right fielder Sara Tucholsky hits her first career home run in a conference tournament doubleheader but tears her ACL (anterior cruciate ligament) rounding first base, Wildcats first baseman Mallory Holtman and shortstop Liz Wallace carry Tucholsky around the bases lest her home run should be disallowed upon her receiving assistance from a teammate.
The full story as reported by ESPN writer Graham Hays is told in greater detail here…
