Right? Something like that. He peeked down at his book just to be sure and gave a nod. That was standard Quidditch knowledge, really, even though he didn't care much for Puddlemere one bit. Quote:

He'd been to a few of their matches. But his family weren't very big on them for whatever reason. Quote:

Bounce. Bounce. Bounce...shiver. "Professor, the oldest team is Puddlemere United and they were founded in 1163." Nod. Look at her being all Quidditch smart and such. Grin. Quote:

Ahem.
So ....scanning through she found what looked like it could have been the right answer--what'd ya know! It was what everyone else was saying. Now She could answer confidently. Once more she raised her hand. "The first team was formed in 1163 and they were..." She squinted a bit so she could see the print clearly, "Puddlemere United..." Quote:

This reminded him of his godfather who was an ex-professional Quidditch player...who owned a sweet shop in Diagon Alley. He was still cool though, Kennedy really admired him. Quote:

She blinked and twisted a blonde curl that was loose, "I want to say 1163 but I may be mistaken..." Quote:
Originally Posted by Grisly Longbones Alex raised his hand. "It's Puddlemere United, right Professor?" he said. "I think that they were founded in like...the 12th century, I think," he answered. He quickly flipped through his notes. "Ah, yes! 1123 was their founding year," he said with a smile. Quote:

Not many people knew this but that was what he was thinking about doing. Well, that was the only thing he had been thinking about doing in the future, actually. Yeah. And he did like Quidditch so... well... this lesson was immediately awesome.
At Vindictus's question, Alec grinned and raised his hand. Sure, people had already said the answer but... well... he was just a little too excited about this. GRIN. "Erm... Puddlemere United, Professor," he said, his eyes sparkling a bright blue, "And... and... they were formed in 1163!" That was a LONG time ago. O_O
Also... could they have some hot chocolate? You know, to help with the coldness of the broomshed? "Bravo! Two points each to Max, Alec, Kennedy, Taylor, Alex, Alexa, Ella, Aidan, and Theo," replied Vindictus. "Can anyone name all thirteen teams? Those who answer correctly will earn five points!"
