Practices
In Olomouc, we have quidditch practices usually once a week. During the autumn season 2022, it is on Tuesdays 17:30–19:00. The schedule can slightly differ each week due to organisation issues, weather conditions, and season (we mostly skip practices during the winter exam period and summer holiday), so please check our up-to-date information and events on our facebook site. Currently, we are a group of about 15 people aged 16-26 years, mostly students of Palacký University in Olomouc. Currently, we play on a sports ground at ZŠ Řezníčkova school (Purkyňova 44 Olomouc, map). From time to time, we also play in a pleasing area of Bezručovy sady park beneath the city walls close to the summer house (exact location on a map). You can join the practices, they are open for everyone – both experienced players and newcomers, as well as for an audience. Also, ERASMUS and other exchange students are very welcome. So come to watch us or better come to join us playing 🙂 You need no special equipment nor special sports skills. You’ll enjoy this outdoor activity, have fun and meet many new friends.
What to bring with you:
- some sports clothing (which can potentially get dirty)
- appropriate shoes (eg. trainers, running shoes, football boots etc.)
- water to drink
We are looking forward to seeing you! And don’t forget to bring your friends with you.
If you would like to promote our practices and invite more friends, do not hesitate to use our A3 poster or leaflets (both in English).
For practising quidditch, basic technics together with tactics and drills are described in a British manual QuidditchUK Drill Manual available in PDF.
