Belgian Quidditch Federation (French: Fédération belge de quidditch; Dutch: Belgische Quidditch Federatie; German: Belgischer Quidditchverband), or BQF, is the governing body of quidditch in Belgium. It was founded in 2012 as a Facebook page[1] to garner interest from potential players and teams within Belgium and began to take shape in 2013 with the introduction of its first two teams: Deurne Dodo's and the Brussels Qwaffles. The organisation began to take shape as a non-profit (French: ASBL; Dutch: VZW) in early 2014 with the formation of the newly-international International Quidditch Association in the form an international federation. Belgian Quidditch Federation maintains one delegate within the IQA Congress as a member of Quidditch Europe alongside Quidditch Nederland (QNL) and the Luxembourgish Quidditch Federation (FLQ). On 10 October 2014, BQF changed its name from Belgium Muggle Quidditch to its current name to better integrate with other sports in the country.[2]
