Quadball in Prinzenpark: Participatory sport, speed, and team spirit in the open air

In the Prinzenpark of Braunschweig, a free movement offer awaits all those who want to experience sport not just as spectators but as participants. Quadball, formerly known as Quidditch, combines elements from handball, rugby, and dodgeball into a fast-paced, contact-intensive mixture full of dynamic playfulness. The project is part of BürgerSport im Park 2026, which brings free and low-threshold offers into the city's green spaces.

A summer date in the greenery

The meeting point is located in Prinzenpark at the St. Matthäus Church on Herzogin-Elisabeth-Straße 80 A. According to project documents, the offer targets children from 8 years old, teenagers, and adults up to 55 years, from beginners to advanced players. For the event, sports clothing, suitable footwear, and some drinking water are recommended.

This is how Quadball feels

Those standing on the sidelines immediately feel the unique stadium atmosphere in the park: short sprints, quick directional changes, clear calls, and a lot of movement in a confined space. The sport thrives on tactics, space allocation, and teamwork. Chasers, keepers, and beaters work together like gears, while throws, running paths, and duels determine the rhythm. This very mix makes Quadball so appealing for the curious and sports fans. ([tura-braunschweig.de](https://www.tura-braunschweig.de/quadball/?utm_source=openai))

Why this offer stands out

The Braunschweig Broomicorns of TuRa 1865 have been promoting Quadball in the Lion City for years, and the department describes the sport as a mixed-gender full-contact sport with elements from rugby, handball, and dodgeball. This gives the participatory event a clear sports identity: not just trying it out, but getting to know a real team discipline.

Location with sports history

The Prinzenpark itself is designated as a landscape protection area and serves as a local recreation area in eastern Braunschweig. It creates an open, green backdrop for movement, small-scale chants, and a sporty summer atmosphere. For visitors, this creates an event that balances park tranquility and competitive excitement.

Conclusion: Participate instead of just watching

Quadball in Prinzenpark brings fresh energy to the Braunschweig sports calendar. The offer is free, requires no registration, and is ideal for anyone wanting to experience an unusual team sport live. Those seeking action, movement, and community should mark this date in their calendars and experience the sport in the green outdoors.
