The Golden Snitch

       “The Golden Snitch”, 10” x 4”, The Golden Snitch often called simply the Snitch, is the third and smallest ball used in Quidditch. It is a walnut-sized gold-coloured sphere with silver wings. It flies around the Quidditch field at high speeds, sometimes pausing and hovering in place. The Seeker’s goal is to catch the Snitch before the other team's seeker, which is worth one-hundred and fifty points.
