If you're interested in signing up for a Hogwarts Hover Slating Team, please post your name, house, and year below!
Sport Suggested By: Spyke O'Connery
Faculty Sponsor: POSITION OPEN
boulder: # acquired-2-status= are like the beaters, only pushing off people from their hover slates
dodger: # acquired-3-status= like a chaser, throws the Dobe into the large rectangular pit
Savior: # acquired-1-status= like a keeper tries to keep the Dobe out of the long pit
Yown: # acquired-1- status=tries to get the qwan (odd golden disk resembling a frisbee that flies low to the ground.
the game= this is an australian wizarding game, 2nd best thing to qiudditch. it is played in a large stadium, where on the groudn there are the teams. players have to get to the other side and roll throw or slam it into the pit, can't get close to the pit by the lines marked on the field. the field is a large rectangle or oval, the pits are the width of the field and at least 3 ft wide. dodgers try to get the Dobe into the pit while the savior tries to go full speed to push it or knock it away. boulders push aside the other team's dodgers and ty to grab the Dobe they cannot hover with it they have to pass it to their team's dodgers. dodgers can't grab other dodgers Dobe form them. unless the Dobe has been dropped or the team's dadger faled to catch it, then can the dodger take advantage of seizing the ball. the Yown (rhyming eith groin) flies around chasing after a thin gold disk that is low to the ground, and when thigns are low to the ground, this makes the Yown crouch. this movemnet breaks the hover slates speed pretty fast, so they have to watch them selves aorund the other players, they cannot hover over or under other players. unless they do a half pipe twisted jumping in the air over them with the hover jet as if in a water tunnel while surfing. that is hard to do though.. so meaning.. this game is brutal and needs ppl with sharp senses. when the yown catches the Qwan, no matter how much or less the points they've got, they get the other teams point and the other team looses the points from their hosue that the other team scored. all the players are needed
hover body movements:
when going onto the hover slate= jump up aiming with a ready position. keep in mind that balancing is everything, the slate is wobbly when hovering. be careful not to keep in a coruched position as you start, or else you'll flip over yourself.
standing position= a soft normal hover or if bent to the knees a bit then it'll move in normal rate (10 MPH)
squatting position= normal for when wantign to get around, easier on the curves more smooth and windier
crouch position= you need fast relfects and good sturdy knees to go from position to position. this is the fastest speed hard swerves and the slate becomes dangerous, unless you've been practicing since yur firs' year.
starting the game|positions|
Qwans are facing each other o the white lin in the middle, the goals on either side of them. the dodgers in a triangle in front of their side of the field. the boulders in the back together behind the dodgers. bourds are on the right sides.. the Dobe is set in the middle. the ref releases the Qwan onto of the Dobe and it sheds light, when that light flashes players jump on to thier bourds, and the game begins
