The 2013 IQA World Cup was the sixth edition of the IQA World Cup, an international Muggle Quidditch tournament, sponsored and managed by the International Quidditch Association.[1][2][3][4] The tournament was hosted in Kissimmee, FL from April 13-14, 2013.
The 2013 Cup featured 77 teams from four different countries. 60 of the teams competed in the D1 classification, and 17 teams competed in the D2 classification.
Quidditch World Cup VI was won by the University of Texas, who defeated UCLA in the championship match.[5][6][7][8][9] This marked the first time in the history of IQA World Cups that Middlebury College did not win the Cup.
The D2 division was won by Sam Houston State University, from Huntsville, Texas, making the championships an all-Texas affair.[10][11][12] Sam Houston defeated Loyola University New Orleans in the D2 championship match.
Due to the increasingly large number of official member teams, Division I is no longer open to all comers and is now limited to 60 teams, who earn their spot in the World Cup by competing in regional tournaments.[13] Division II consists of other official teams who did not earn their spot at regionals but still want to compete.
