Quidditch
 
Equipment
 
Balls :
  • Quaffle : The Quaffle is a red ball, which size is similar to a soccer’s one. It is used to score goals.
  • Bludger : There are two bludgers in the game. They are smaller than the Quaffle, black, and have to follow players and knock them off their brooms.
  • Snitch : It is a golden, very small ball (size of a golf ball) with wings and very fast.
 
Broomstrick's :
This is a list with the different existent broomsticks, to play Quidditch you can use any of them, there’s no rule against that.

Players
 
  • Chaser : There are three chasers in each team and their purpose is to score goals.
  • Seeker : There is only one seeker in each team and he/she has to catch the golden snitch.
  • Keeper : The keeper has to guard the goal posts.
  • Beater : Two beaters have to play in a team. They have to keep the bludgers from hitting the members of their team, and try to make these balls hit and knock off the opposite team’s players.
 
Rules
 
The match starts with the whistle of the referee. At that time, the fourteen players raise on their brooms and start playing. Chasers try to score goals with the Quaffle, which is worth 10 points. If a foul is committed, a penalty shot is awarded to the fouled team. A Quidditch match doesn’t have a time limit, and it is finished only when the seeker catches the snitch, which gives 150 points to his team (so generally the team that catches it is the winner).
