So you've been in The First Kiss Project. You've done the First Time Bad Sex. You've remixed and you've played with a Week of Weasleycest.
Now, the jockish minds of
spacebrat and
stoptocheer bring you:
You Shoot We Score: the Quidditchfic Challenge
That's right, a challenge about sport. Quidditch. The one thing there simply isn't enough of in this fandom.
We simply want you to write a fic about Quidditch. Now, of course, we're not ruling out smut or pairings or anything of the such, we love jocklove as much as everyone, but in this challenge, Quidditch has to be the focus.
Take a canon Quidditch player (like the WoW03, we'd prefer people to take different characters, but repeats are, of course, sometimes necessary) and write about them.
The Rules:
1. Pick a character (or a team, or simply multiple characters) from the list below. Comment to this post with who you'd like to write about, and we'll strike it off.
2. Your submission must be at least 500 words long, and well beta-read.
3. The due date for submissions is 1 October, 2003. If this doesn't suit, we may accept heavy-handed bribery for extensions.
4. Quidditch must be the main focus of the story. Relationships, character death, whatever - it takes a backseat to Quidditch this time around. THIS DOES NOT MEAN NO SMUT/SLASH/HOTJOCKLOVE. It just means that the *focus* of the fic is Quidditch. Kind of like Oliver Wood in a way - he does other stuff, but the point of his life is Quidditch.
5. At least one canon Quidditch player must be involved.
6. The story must take place primarily on the Quidditch pitch, in the locker room or another location that is Quidditch-oriented.
7. Submissions can be sent to youshoot_wescore@yahoo.com, using an HTML template we'll provide at a later date.
And now...
Gryffindor
Notes about Gryffindor: Oliver Wood leaves in PoA, Fred/George/Angelina/Alicia in OotP. It is implied that Katie Bell is a year below F/G/A/A. They win the Quidditch Cup in PoA and OotP. Ginny mentions intending to trial for Chaser the year after OotP.

Slytherin
Notes about Slytherin: In CoS it is stated that they are an all-male team. In PoA the replacements for the final match are picked for size. Pucey was one of the replaced players. Malfoy replaces Higgs as Seeker during CoS. Flint leaves in PoA; later editions of PS/SS state he is the same age as Oliver Wood, while earlier prints name him as one year older, and JKR said he had failed a year. In movie-canon Bletchley is female, however, OotP mentions Miles Bletchley - male. Bole and Derrick both leave school in GoF. Slytherin win the Quidditch Cup in PS/SS.
