So today, my English teacher had us pick any book in the library to do a quick paper on. I just so happened to pick Sorcerer's Stone and opened to the chapter on Quidditch.
Turns out, there are actually a whole 700 fouls that can be committed in Quidditch. The ones we know of are:
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 occured by accident)
10. Stooging: No more than one Chaser is allowed in the scoring area at any one time
11. Transfiguring an opponent into a polecat
12. Decapitating an opponent with a broadsword
13. Releasing blood-sucking vampire bats from underneath your robes.
14. Setting fire to an opponent's broom.
15. Attacking an opponent's broom with a club.
16. Attacking an opponent with an axe.
That's only sixteen out of seven hundred! And all of them were committed at a World Cup in the 1400's.
So, what other fouls do you guys think were committed?
