How To Play Quidditch

Although fall doesn't officially start for a few more weeks, summer is essentially over. For most of us, days of swimming at the beach and outdoor evening jogs are numbered. Fall, however, is a great time to stay active outside by hiking or rock climbing. But if you're a Harry Potter fan, you might want to take to a field or the woods for some quidditch. Real-life quidditch? Yes -- it's possible. In fact, it's already being played by muggles around the country (not necessarily children, I might add). It's not the calorie burn of a long run on soft sand, but it's fun and it's free, except for all those extra brooms you may have to purchase. No magic required.
