Ravenclaw Chasers rocked and socked the pitch in Spring Term 2017 and we soared our way to our first Quidditch victory since Fall Term 2015!
The first match honored Helga Hufflepuff and the Quaffle, and we were thrilled to come in first. What a great way to start the season! Then the second match, starring Salazar Slytherin and the Bludger, was a real nail-biter. Slytherin won first place for their Founder and we barely edged Hufflepuff for second place by a two point margin.
In the third match, featuring Godric Gryffindor and the Snitch, it was our turn to roar with a strong first place finish. The fourth match celebrated our own Founder Rowena Ravenclaw and her marvelous invention of the Quidditch Hoops. We did Rowena proud and blitzed the pitch to finish way out front in first place.
The fifth match showcased all four Founders. We really poured it on, and while we finished in second, we were well ahead of third place this time.
The other Houses were very worthy opponents, and we salute all the Chasers of Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, and Slytherin. Well played all!!
We thank the Cup Quidditch Referees for their interesting, creative, and very educational prompts. I know we all learned a lot about the history of Quidditch.
Deep thanks to the Ravenclaw House Quidditch staff, and the the PickleCake, for all the love and support.
Most of all, we thank the many Ravenclaw chasers who played this term!
WE DID IT!
Thank you greenheron and freemiki for this wrap up of our winning Quidditch season!
Well done!
