Quidditch

Quidditch Rules

1. Players must not stray over the boundary lines of the pitch, although they may fly as high as desired. The Quaffle must be surrendered to the opposition if any player leaves the boundary (it is unknown what the penalty is if a player on defense leaves the pitch).

2. "Time out" may be called at any time by the Captain of a team. Time out may be extended to two hours if a game has already lasted for more than twelve hours. Failure to return to the pitch after this time will lead to the team being disqualified.

3. Penalties can be awarded to teams by the referee. A single Chaser may take the penalty by flying from the central circle towards the scoring area. The opposing team's Keeper may attempt to stop the shot being scored, but all other players must not interfere (it is unknown if the Seeker may still attempt to catch the Snitch while a penalty is being attempted).

4. Contact is allowed, but a player may not seize hold of another player's broomstick or any part of their anatomy.

5. No substitution of players is allowed throughout the game, even if a player is too injured or tired to continue to play, unless there are reserve players present.

6. Players may take their wands onto the pitch, but they must not be used on or against any players, any players' broomsticks, the referee, any of the four balls, or the spectators.

7. A game of Quidditch will only end once the Golden Snitch has been caught, or at the mutual consent of both team Captain.

Quidditch Fouls

1. Blagging: No player may seize any part of an opponent's broom to slow or hinder the player

2. Blatching: No player may fly with the intent to collide

3. Blurting: No player may lock broom handles with the intent to steer an opponent off course

4. Bumphing: Beaters must not hit Bludgers towards spectators

5. Cobbing: Players must not use their elbows against opponents

6. Flacking: Keepers must not defend the posts from behind by punching Quaffles out of the hoops - goals must be defended from the front

7. Haversacking: Chasers must not still be in contact with the Quaffle as it passes through a hoop

8. Quaffle-pocking: Chasers must not tamper with the Quaffle in any way

9. Snitchnip: No player other than the Seeker may touch or catch the Golden Snitch (unknown what would happen if this occurred by accident)

10. Stooging: No more than one Chaser is allowed in the scoring area at any one time
