History

1991-92
Hufflepuff was defeated by Gryffindor. Severus Snape refereed the contest, and Harry Potter caught the Golden Snitch within five minutes.
1992-93
Hufflepuff only got to play Ravenclaw. The Quidditch Cup was cancelled before their next match against Gryffindor because of attacks on Muggle-born students.
1993–94
Hufflepuff defeated Gryffindor when Cedric Diggory captured the Snitch, after Gryffindor's Seeker Harry Potter was attacked by Dementors. It is also known that Slytherin defeated Hufflepuff this season.
1995–96
Both Ravenclaw and Gryffindor defeated Hufflepuff during the 1995-96 school year. It is not known which side won the Hufflepuff versus Slytherin match.
1996-97
Hufflepuff defeated Gryffindor 320-60 after Harry Potter, the Gryffindor Team's Seeker and Captain, was knocked out by a Bludger hit by the Gryffindor subsitute Keeper, Cormac McLaggen.

Uniform and equipment
The Hufflepuff Quidditch team's uniforms are canary yellow and black, the same as their house colours. Similar to the uniforms of the three other houses, the Badger's Quidditch uniform consists of a long cloak, tight fitting sweater, hard-leather gauntlets and shin-guards, and light boots. A small embroidered Hufflepuff crest is stitched onto the uniform over the heart, and the name and number of the player are on the back of the cloak.
Goggles are often used in stormy playing conditions.
In addition to the established uniform, the Keeper wears padded, hard-leather chest armour and an optional padded, hard-leather helmet.
Beaters also carry small black clubs (similar to baseball bats) to help them ward off and redirect Bludgers during matches
