Quidditch on The Sands on Sunday
'In the fantasy world of the Harry Potter novels and movies, Quidditch is a magical competitive sport in involving flying contestants. Matches are played between two teams of seven players riding flying broomsticks, using four balls: a Quaffle, two Bludgers, and a Golden Snitch. Six ring-shaped goals are situated atop poles of different heights, three on each side of the pitch. It is an extremely rough but very popular semi-contact sport, played by wizards and witches. In the Wizarding World of the Harry Potter universe, Quidditch has a fervent fan following.' https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quidditch
