My mom is muggleborn and we are very close with her family who are all muggles. So we played this once on an outing with my muggle cousins, my brothers and grandparents". She swung her putt back and hit the ball. It hit the diaganal bar on the corner and turned left. Sarah ran behind it and where it stopped -she stopped. "That was one shot, that goes for a point. The aim is to complete all the holes while accumelating the least points." She swung it back again, this time it reached the area right behind the hole. From there she she his it again, the ball rolled over the hole, yet did not sink in. "Oh Merlin!" said Sarah with fustration and she inched the ball forward gently. She did it as not to overshoot again, yet she did it a little too softly and it landed right next to the hole. Sarah shrugged her shoulders... she nipped at the ball again with her putt. This time it landed in the hole. "It took my five shots to get it in, therefore I got five points" She took out a partchment and quill and wrote down her score. "Your turn now!"
Heh. She had even pronounced that wrong.
'I guess it's kinda obvious I've never played before.' Ariadne laughed along, happy that Sarah seemed to have forgotten her earlier sorrows.
'You must come from a large family then. That's amazing.' At least for Ari, who was an only child, raised by a single parent.
'Do you get on well with your siblings? Are all of them wizards?' She couldn't help it. Ari was always curious about big families.
'
So who gets the least number of points actually wins?' Counter-intuitive much? Ariadne really didn't get this rule. But it was made a bit clearer when Sarah needed 5 moves to get the ball in the hole. Still, her younger housemate seemed quite skilful.
'Well done!' the fifth year praised her.
Oh dearie. Her turn now. Mmmmkay...
'Don't laugh.' Ari said whilst setting the ball on the tee and getting ready to hit it. Completely clueless, she had used all her might to hit the small ball and it took off with considerable speed, eventually landing outside the golf course!
'How much do I get for THAT?' Ari had told Sarah not to laugh, but she herself burst into laughter after her unfortunate shot.
