Ladies and Gentlemen,

I just wanted to inform you of the results of the first match 
sanctioned by the Lakeland Indoor Quidditch Association (LIQA) held 
today August 24 at 1:30 pm (EST) at Gymnastics Ect.  Griffindor Team 
led by Brian Estes won two games, and Hufflepuff, led by Steven 
Estes, won one game.  A small celebration followed the event which 
also honored Brian's 10th birthday which occurred earlier this month.

The games were held without any brooms do to the lack of suitable 
broom flying contestants.  LIQA altered the game slightly from the 
HP books, we forced players to dribble the quaffle like a basketball 
and bounce pass to team mates.  Parents stood on the sidelines 
throwing bludgers (black nerf balls) at the kids and occasionally 
yelling "Snitch" and tossing one of the yellow snitch balls into the 
air.  Despite little practice time (to the dismay of Oliver Wood 
watching from the sidelines), both teams played well. The beaters 
ran around with nerf bats protecting their team from the bludgers.

Everyone had a great time and no injuries were recorded.  Thanks to 
the Orlando Indoor Quidditch Association and HP Educational Fanon 
for making the quidditch equipment available for the event.
