HOL Special Seminar

Referee and Player Training
(WQL Qualifications)
by
Professors Blue and Xanthos
=======================================


Requirements for the Class
Ref Training - 
  • must be running a PC
  • must download and install either mIRC or Pirch (see Texts section below for IRC FAQ)
  • must download and unzip the ref program for quaffle play (5 files in zip file)
  • OPTIONAL: Snitch ref training lesson - download proper materials (6 files in zip file - I have only included ONE logic puzzle file, as it would not be a very good training tool if Seekers could download puzzles. After the seminar is complete, I will send Seeker Trainers more puzzles to train with.)
Quidditch Players -
  • Mac or PC will work
  • Must download IRC program for your type of computer
    • a. PC - mIRC or Pirch seem to be the more popular
    • b. MAC - Ircle or Snak
  • Seeker Trainees - snitch map may help you - suggest that you print it out
