Emblem

The team's emblem

The team's emblem featured three yellow dragons, two over a background of four chequered squares of red and white. The top dragon was facing left holding a Bludger. The middle dragon faced right cluthong a Quaffle, while the bottom dragon faced left clutching a Bludger.

Team special move

The English team's special move was called the Rowntree Counter, and played out as follows: Chasers Edric Vosper, Avery Hawksworth, and Keaton Flitney did a dive and out of the back of their brooms flowed red, white, and blue, signifying the flag of the United Kingdom, and referencing the Red Arrows, a famous English flying squad. This move scored a single goal of ten points.

They knocked two opposing players off their brooms and while distracting the opponent Beaters, Flitney passed the Quaffle to Hawksworth, who kicked it around before passing it back to Vosper. Vosper did an overhead kick into the hoop on the far left.

Stadium

The English Quidditch Stadium was an oval grass pitch, with white boundary markings and a sanded area below the two sets of hoops at each end. It was set in an old ivy-covered British stone castle, with battlements, turrets, and a drawbridge. A moat surrounded the grass. The stands were made of brick and small flags were set across the stands, bearing the colours red, white, and on some flags, yellow.
