Inter-House Quidditch Cup
The Inter-House Quidditch Cup, also known as the Hogwarts Quidditch Cup or simply the Quidditch Cup, is awarded yearly at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry to the House Quidditch team with the most total points.
Description
The Championship takes the form of a mini-league, with each house team playing each other throughout the course of the year. This results in three games for each team, and six games of Quidditch for the school to enjoy overall. As there is such a small number of games, each one is eagerly anticipated and usually attended by the entire school, including the teachers. When it comes to Quidditch some of the Professors lose their normal calm demeanour and become as excited about the result as the students. Commentary is provided on each game.
Final standings in the competition are based on the total amount of points won over all matches played, rather than the number of victories. It is entirely possible for one team to lose to another, but still claim the Cup if their points from previous games were high enough.
The Quidditch Cup itself is an enormous, silver trophy cup, with four handles designed after the four Houses' emblematic animals. The Cup is traditionally kept in the office of the reigning champions' Head of House.
Quidditch results are important not only for the pride of winning the Quidditch Cup, but also because there are House Points at stake.
