Many inoccent women were killed, as witches' were only women. but a select few they caught were witches. One of them was Annie Baker, now our Librarian.

There are many sports around the world, but this one is not well known. Quadball is one of the lesser known sports of the wizarding world, but is fun never the less. There is one team from each house, and each team consists of 5 players. Four players are on the board and one guards the goal. Each of the players on the board has a five foot long stick with a wooden paddle on the end of it, this is called the Bentle. There is only one ball in quad ball, despite the name of the game. At the begging of the game the ball is yellow, or the neutral color, during the game the ball will change to color of the team who possess's it with a loud bang. That gives the ball the name Bang ball. If the ball goes over twenty feet above the playing field, the fans may participate. |
