Quidditch: a fictional wizardly sport played in the popular Harry Potter series. Our counselors decided to take a Muggle (human) like spin on the game and bring it to camp. After constructing six elevated ring-shaped goals and some custom made broom sticks, they were ready to introduce the campers to the game of Quidditch. There are two teams, red being Gryffindor, and green being Slytherin. Each side has seven team players. Three players on each team are named chasers, who take control of the avaliable quaf
fles (balls) to try to score in the other team's goals for points. Two "keepers" guard these goals, in hope to block their rivals from scoring. Beaters are also included amongst the team, who use the quaffles to throw at players on the other team. If a player is hit, they are forced to run around the goal once before they can enter the game again. Last, but most importantly, one selected player takes the role as the golden snitch. This player, dressed in yellow, hides amongst ALL of camp. One player from each team takes it upon themself to search camp while the game is being played to find the snitch. Whichever team find the snitch firsts, wins. Everyone was having a lot of fun during this new exciting addition to Rising Sun!
