“What! Growler the Fouler?” said Lee.

“That’s him,” said Ollie. “The dirtiest player in Chaney Street. He’s our new shooter.”

There were two forwards, called shooters, on each team, and they scored most of the points. The vampire shooters were Bella, who was tall for her age, and an older girl named Naz Patel.

There were also three dodgers, whose main job was to keep the ball away from their own casket and pass it, dribble it, roll it, or throw it into the hands of the shooters.

Billy, who was small and very fast, was a fantastic dodger. The sixth player on each side was the ghoulkeeper, who defended the casket. That was Lee’s job.

“Hey, Ollie,” cried Growler. “Why are you talking to that sucker, huh? Get it? Sucker! Huh-huh-huh!” He loped up the field, snickering stupidly.

Lee was furious. He picked up a stick.

“Lee, no!” gasped Ollie. “He’ll make mincemeat out of you!”

Lee grinned.

“Don’t worry, I’m not going to hit him. Just watch.”
