Because cheerleaders are a pretty much unheard of concept in the UK. Most
quidditch fans would probably insist the annoyingly cheerful girls in the
ridiculous skirts get out of the way and let them concentrate on the serious
business of quidditch!

But there should be mascots - like at football games, then whenever the game
got boring the fans could watch the large pluch lion wrestling with the big
snake :)
