Snape refereeing a game does not mean he necessarily played Quidditch 
when he was in school. *snip*

In OOtP, Sirius and Remus say that Snape was probably jealous of 
James because he was better at Quidditch and everything else than 
Snape. Which would suggest, that Snape DID play Quidditch at one 
point, but just wasn't good at it. He also does enjoy watching 
Slytherin play, and is very adamant about trying to get Harry to lose 
Quidditch priviledges. (Chamber of Secrets? Can't remember which book 
it was from) I think he must enjoy the game to some level, and he 
certainly enjoys his house winning the Cup so often, from what we 
hear from McGonnagal in SS/PS. I certainly believed he played 
Quidditch, I think that because James was such a talented player, the 
other Houses didn't win as often or get as much of the Glory, which 
would make Snapes behavior in regards to the Slytherin team 
understandable.
