Personally, I prefer 43-Man Squamish, which makes you squeamish.

This is serious.  Check out the stare down at :30.  Does that guy look like Ron Weasley or what? 

It looks like a bunch of guys running while holding their johnsons.  The girls . . . well . . .

This is a politically correct sport:

Quote:THE GENDER MAXIMUM RULE

A quidditch game allows each team to have a maximum of four players who identify as the same gender in active play on the field at the same time. This number increases to five once the seekers enter the game. The gender that a player identifies with is considered to be that player’s gender, which may or may not correspond with that person’s sex. This is commonly referred to as the gender maximum rule. USQ accepts those who don’t identify within the binary gender system and acknowledges that not all of our players identify as male or female. USQ welcomes people of all identities and genders into our league.

For more information on USQ’s philosophy on gender equality, please see Title 9 ¾.

Most recreational soccer leagues, intramural flag football, etc. have similar gender rules, and have for many years, though perhaps they don't make explicit the possibility of transgender players.
