If it's like Muggle soccer football World Cup and Muggle 
Olympics, there are rules about the players being citizens or 
nationals or some such of the country they represent: NOT 
residents, as many of them play pro in other, richer, countries 
during the regular season.

But all a country needs to sweep Quidditch is SEVEN fabulous players 
on seven fabulous brooms. Luxembourg's wealth can help with the 
brooms (that's always my problems with the idea of Quidditch), 
but the players might just be siblings from ONE FAMILY, just 
the Marsalis family in jazz.
