So where do the Quidditch robes come from? And the
school brooms?
My theory is that the school gets an annual budget,
maybe from the MoM, maybe by donations, maybe it's
simply the interests of a large capital safely kept at
Gringott's.This budget pays teachers' salaries, food,
all kinds of necessary equipment from bedclothes to
new books for the library, and also everything related
to Quidditch.
The school equips the players with robes and brooms,
if a new player joins a team, they buy a new broom for
him/her, and obviously don't choose just any old
model, but always the most recent and best available
on the market. Hence Harry's nimbus 200.
To give a whole team an entirely new set of brooms is
not part of the concept, but if somebody like Lucius
Malfoy chooses to throw some thousands of Galleons out
of the window to buy seven Nimbus 2001, he is free to
do so.
