Letting my dorkiness shine!

On Saturday Sean and I played Muggle Quidditch! Yes the game from Harry Potter modified for us Muggles. It was a lot of fun and I'm still sore. The way we played was as follows: 3 Chasers, 2 Beaters, 1 Keeper, and 1 Seeker. The chasers are played like ultimate frisbee. You throw a ball between one another, once caught you can only pivot and pass the ball to you next teammate. The object is to get the ball into one of the 3 hoops. The hoops were made from PBC pipe and insect nets. The beaters used hockey sticks and kickballs to try and take out the other teams chasers and beaters. If bludgeoned/hit with the bludger you had to take a knee for 10 seconds. Since it was a small field this really did effect play. The keep tried to catch the snitch which consisted of those spinning helicopter blades that you release from a launcher.

There is some information on wikipedia about different ways to play.
