BROOMS UP! CREATIVITY FLIES WITH QUIDDITCH AT USDAN

Quidditch Tournaments participants in action

This week, at the first of two Quidditch Tournaments on campus this season, students engaged in double periods of pure fun and imagination, thanks to the Harry Potter-inspired sport.  The quirky activity —described as a mix between dodgeball, soccer and rugby— has been offered at Usdan for the last three years.

“Usdan is a creative, whimsical place, so we thought it would be great to bring ‘Harry Potter’ and Quidditch to camp….it’s a unique recreation option for our campers,” says Lafiya Watson Ramirez, Coordinator of Electronic Media. 

Check out the video that local paper Newsday shot about the Tournament.
