QUIDDITCH

On Oct 23 we set up with some friends to play QUIDDITCH!!! It was so much fun. Well everything was going perfectly according to plan and then the day of, it poured rain for the first time really in months. It was cold and wet, but we played anyway and it was worth it. About 20 people still showed up even in the rain.

Eric putting down boundaries to catch the snitch. We had a penny as the snitch and it was placed in the boxed area in the grass. The seeker played the game normally as a chaser for the first 15 minutes of the game, and then had one minute to find the penny. If no one found it in that minute, they then had to wait another 5 minutes and then had another minute and so on until it was found. Debbie was the first seeker and she found it on the second round winning the game for team Hufflepuff.

This is Eric preparing for the game

This is the best we've got of an action shot



And this is us all wet after the game. Would have taken pictures during it if it hadn't been so wet.


Our thighs all got really sore from holding the broom there so long but it was well worth it for the amount of fun we had. We plan on playing again before the new Harry Potter movie comes out.
