A Quick Explanation of Quidditch

Quidditch is a wizard sport played on broomsticks. The game is played between two teams of seven players, with three Chasers, two Beaters, a Keeper and a Seeker on each side. There are four balls in Quidditch. One Quaffle, two Bludgers and the Golden Snitch. The pitch has six hoops, three at either end, and points are scored when a Chaser puts the Quaffle through one of the opposition's hoops. Ten points for each time a Chaser scores. The Keeper tries to prevent the opposing Chasers scoring.

The Bludgers are malevolent self propelled balls slightly smaller than the Quaffle. They fly around the pitch trying to hit the players. The Beaters of both teams are armed with small clubs like rounders bats and try to hit the Bludgers away from their teammates and toward to opposing team's players. The Golden Snitch is a tiny gold ball about the size of a large walnut, with fluttering silver wings. The role of the Seeker is to capture the Snitch, which ends the game and earn's the Seeker's team 150 points. The 150 point advantage can often overwhelm an opposing advantage, and unless the game goes on for a long time can be the sole cause of victory.
