Which character acts as the main creator of an athletic game on campus?

• A. Gene
• B. Mr. Prud'homme
• C. Finny
• D. The Headmaster

Answer: (C)

Finny is the one who invents and leads an athletic game on campus. He grabs a partly inflated ball and spontaneously creates Blitzball, laying down informal rules and pulling the other boys into play. This shows his natural leadership in sports and his desire to shape the activity around him rather than just participate in already-structured games. Gene participates and observes, but does not originate the game, while Mr. Prud’homme and the Headmaster are authority figures, not creators of campus games. Finny’s ability to transform a simple moment into a new sport highlights his charismatic, rule-bending athletic creativity.
