WHAT IS QUADBALL?
Inspired by quidditch, quadball is a fast-paced, full-contact sport created in 2005 and played in over 40 countries. A roster consists of up to 21 athletes with up to seven players per team on the field at any one time. Each player must keep a broom between their legs at all time. Points are scored by throwing a quadball through any of three hoops fixed at either end of the field, while another three balls (dodgeballs) is used to "knock out" players temporarily. The snitch runner is a flag that must be caught to end the game.
