Broomstick

A broomstick is the ordinary flying mount of the wizarding world, used for travel, games, and Quidditch. Harry’s first school broom is a Nimbus Two Thousand, earned when Professor McGonagall sees him catch Neville’s Remembrall. Later brooms in the story include the school Clean Sweep and the Firebolt.
