Watch out, wannabe wizards... Quidditch is back!
Come and have a go at Muggle Quidditch (part of Manchester RAG Week) at the Armitage Sports Centre on Saturday 18 February 2012 at 11am.
Quidditch is a fast, fun and magical game filled with quaffles, bludgers and a Snitch! You don't need to know the rules to enter, just be up for some fun, fresh air and exercise, and the rest will be explained on the day.
You will need 7-14 people in your team and you can register as follows:
- email your details to quidditchmanchester@gmail.com
or - go in person to the Student Activities Office in the Student's Union
The cost is £2.00 per person and all profits will be donated to charity ... Don't forget your broomstick!
