Wronski Feint

The Seeker hurtles towards the ground pretending to have seen the Snitch far below, but pulls out of the dive just before hitting the pitch. Intended to make the opposing Seeker copy him and crash. Named after the Polish Seeker Josef Wronski.

here can be no doubt that Quidditch has changed beyond all recognition since Gertie Keddle first watched 'those numbskulls' on Queerditch Marsh. Perhaps, had she lived today, she too would have thrilled to the poetry and power of Quidditch. Long may the game continue to evolve and long may future generations of witches and wizards enjoy this most glorious of sports!

f you have ever asked yourself where the Golden Snitch came from, how the Bludgers came into existence or why the Wigtown Wanderers have pictures of meat cleavers on their robes you need Qidditch Through the Ages. This limited edition is a copy of the volume in Hoawarts School Library where it is consulted by young Quidditch fans on an almost daily basis.
