The Facebook page of Baton Rouge and New Orleans community quidditch team, The Gulf Coast Gumbeaux says, “Anyone is welcome to tryout if they have the drive and determination to do whatever it takes to win.”
The team hosts open summer practices in New Orleans and Baton Rouge with tryouts for the fall roster in late August as well as early January for the spring roster. The Gumbeaux’s recruitment efforts appear to be working, Two USM students were on the Gumbeaux’s roster when it placed in the United States Quidditch Southwest regional tournament on Feb.
