Adaptation of the airborne wizard soccer game featured in the Harry Potter books. Two teams comprised of seven players compete on broomsticks in the air. The quaffle, a floating sphere, acts as the equivalent to a soccer ball. Three "chasers" on each team offensively move the quaffle up and down the airborne stadium and attempt to hurl it through one of three existing goals. One "keeper," or goalie, on each end tries to block and return those attempts. Players must also watch out for "bludgers," or hard spheres with minds of their own that try to knock wizards off of their broomsticks, and the "snitch," a tiny golden sphere that pretty much guarantees a win.
This fall might not feature Harry Potter casting another spell on the box office, but that doesn't mean you'll have to go completely without the bespectacled young wizard. In addition to the mammoth new novel, fans of young Harry will get to take part in the fantastical game where broomsticks really do mean a clean sweep. In Harry Potter: Quidditch World Cup you'll get to catch crazy air that would make even Tony Hawk green with envy. Read More »
