Oliver Wood was the captain of the Gryffindor Quidditch team at that time and had the job of recruiting players. McGonagall took Harry to him during flying class because she saw him catch Neville's remembrall with great skill while on a broom Harry then became seeker because of his skills. Oliver then takes Harry onto the Quidditch pitch to show him how to play Quidditch. Hope I helped :)

Why did Professor McGonagall take Harry's Firebolt away in Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban?

Professor McGonagall took the broom because the broom arrived Christmas morning without a card or note to indicate who it was from. Hermionie Granger thus told Professor McGonagall about that as well as her fear that it was from Sirius Black, who was at the time believed to be trying to hunt down and kill Harry Potter. Therefore, the broom was taken in order to make sure that it hadn't been jinxed. However, he did get it back just in time for the Ravenclaw match.


Who sent the broomstick to Harry Potter?

In Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, Minerva McGonagall sent Harry Potter the Nimbus 2000 after convincing Albus Dumbledore to bend the rules and allow a first year onto the team and to own their own broom.In Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban Sirius Black sent Harry the Firebolt. Purchased under Harry's name, paid for from Sirius' Gringotts account.


What is the name of Harry Potter's first broom?

The first broomstick Harry had was called the Nimbus Two Thousand. But at one Quidditch match at Hogwarts in Harry's third year, Harry got attacked by Dementors and he went unconcious and fell off his broom. Then the broom flew away into the whomping willow... And that tree doesn't like being hit. So as Harry's first broom got smashed to bits, his godfather, Sirius, sent him a Firebolt.


What are the characteristics of Professor McGonagall in Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone?

Professor Minerva McGonagall is described as a "rather severe-looking woman". McGonagall has black hair, often secured in a very tight bun and rarely ever seen down. She is tall and often wears either Emerald or Tartan robes. McGonagall wears her hat quite crooked and wears square glasses, that match the marking on her animagus form.McGonagall is considered to be very strict and often stern. Unlike Severus Snape, she does not give points away to Gryffindor students simply because she is their head of house.


Why was Professor Quirrell turned into stone after Harry Potter touched him?

Professor Quirrell suffered severe burns and blisters when he touched Harry Potter. In the movie he began to crumble away. This is because Lily Potter sacrificed herself for her son and Lord Voldemort could not harm him. As Professor Quirrell was sharing his body with Voldemort, he too could not touch him.

Where is malfoy when you have to look for him in Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince?

If you are referring to the "Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince Wii Game", then Draco is in the Room of Requirement. Draco sent a fake messenger to Harry saying Professor McGonagall was waiting for him in the Astronomy Tower, but when he got there, it was really Crabbe and Goyle trying to trap him to keep him away from finding out with Draco was doing. Nasty gits :P

What is the climax of Harry Potter and the prisoners of Azkaban?

The climax was when the dog took Ron into the Whomping Willow's secret passageway. When you find out that Scabbers is an Animangus named Peter Petigrew and that he actually murdered the 13 muggles and not Sirius Black. That is when Harry and Sirius Black are being killed by the Dementors. Harry finally says "Expecto Petronum!" and all the Dementors fly away screaming. Harry rides away with Hermione and Sirius on Buckbeak. At the very end, Harry flys away on his Firebolt which is his new broomstick. Trust me, I've seen this movie a bunch of times. Also I own all the movies and have seen al of them in the theaters. (: When the Grimm bites Ron and drags him into the shrieking shack and harry and Hermione run after them only to find out that the Grimm is Sirius black and is remus lupin's friend from school. they explain to harry that sirius did not betray harrys parents. peter petigrew (descized as rons rat) did so they capture him to give to the demontors. when they go to leave, snape comes in and harry attacks him with a spell. the six of them (harry Ron hermionie sirius remus and peter) go outside and remus becomes a werewolf. sirius turns into the grimm to protect the others and is nearly killed. remus runs off into the forest. then the demontors all swarm on harry and sirius and the harry that went back in time saves him and harry thinks it was his dad intill he himself goes back in time and finds out it was him. they later free sirius from a holding cell at hogwarts where he was captured and save buckbeak from being killed ;) That is when Harry and Sirius Black are being killed by the Dementors. Harry finally says "Expecto Petronum!" and all the Dementors fly away screaming. Harry rides away with Hermione and Sirius on Buckbeak.

What is harry and the Deathly Hallows about?

Back of Book: Harry is waiting in Privet Drive. The Order of the Phoenix is coming to escort him safely away without Voldemort and his supporters knowing - if they can. But what will Harry do then? How can he fulfil the momentous and seemingly impossible task that Professor Dumbledore has left him? Without giving you any spoilers, its about Harry finding Horcrux's (sp?) And contains the final showdown between Voldemort and Harry.

What is the climax of 'Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban'?

id say its best to just read the book and find out... but in general, --harry finds out that sirius is really his godfather and that pettigrew was the "secret holder"(or whatever it was :P) to protecting harry's parents.....and harry and Hermione go back in time to be able to save buckbeak and sirius(who everyone thinks is a mass murderer) again that's generally it... (if i were to do a full explaination, it would take too long ,and i might even miss a bit of it) :P
