To play quadball (formerly quidditch) you need a broom (a length of PVC pipe), a volleyball for the quaffle, three dodgeballs for bludgers, three hoops per side, headbands to mark positions, cleats and team jerseys.

2. Brooms
Most teams use PVC pipe cut to length, which is cheap and durable.
3. Quaffle and Bludgers
The quaffle is a slightly deflated volleyball, and the bludgers are dodgeballs.
- Mikasa VQ2000 Micro Cell Volleyball – a soft-touch ball that is kind on new players' forearms.
- GoSports No Sting Inflatable Dodgeballs – soft inflatable balls with a pump and bag.
4. Hoops
Three hoops of different heights at each end. Most teams build their own from PVC.
5. Cleats and Mouthguard
Moulded cleats grip on grass. Quadball is a contact sport, so a mouthguard is a good idea.
- adidas Goletto VIII Firm Ground Cleats – a well-reviewed moulded cleat for grass and turf fields.
- Shock Doctor Trash Talker Mouthguard – a strapless guard you can talk and drink through.
