We try to stay as close to the game in the Harry Potter books and movies as possible. Everybody has a "broom" which is a stick, about 3-4 feet long, that you have to have between your legs at all times. Ours are made of PVC pipe. Chasers score points with the quaffle (a volleyball) by throwing it through one of three hoops. Keepers act as goalies to prevent the other team's Chasers from scoring. Beaters throw bludgers (dodgeballs) at other players, and if you get hit by one, you're knocked off your broom and have to run back to your goal before you can come back in the game. Seekers try to find and capture the Golden Snitch, which is a tennis ball in a sock velcroed to the back of the Snitch Runner (who runs around the pitch and tries to wrestle away from the Seekers). Most teams are based at colleges, but ours is a community team, so we accept anyone 18 or older. There are lots of videos on Youtube if you want to watch a game :)
