The object of soccer is for a player to get the ball into the other team’s goal by using any part of the body except the player's hands and arms. A kick off is taken to start a game, to restart play after a goal has been scored or to start the second half or a new quarter. An offensive player must have two opponents including the goalkeeper between himself and the goal line at the moment the ball is passed to him.
QuidditchA set of goal hoops consists of three, upright and self-standing goal hoops that as a group are equidistant from both sidelines. All seven starters must line up on the goal line in any order they choose with their brooms on the ground. The Commissioner or head referee will shout, “THE SNITCH IS LOOSE!” At this point the Snitch Runner may run wherever she likes off the field while respecting the Snitch perimeter established at the beginning of the match. The match will last an indefinite amount of time until the Snitch has been caught by a Seeker. Thirty points are awarded to the team whose seeker caught the Snitch, and the match is immediately ended. The team accumulating the greater number of points during the match is the winner.

Quidditch is a lot like soccer. The players still have teammates they can pass to, they still try to get the ball into a goal, and they still run a lot. Although in quidditch they may need to run even more because now they have to catch the golden snitch. In this case the golden snitch is typically a cross-country runner. And they can be fast. We should commend them for their speed.
