Upgrade requires 1000 Galleons
Upgrading the broom requires 1000 Galleons. If you don't have enough money, sell your equipment and beasts to make money. It is also recommended that you search for Eye Chests scattered throughout the map and collect 500 Galleons using Disillusionment.

Beat Imelda's record in the Broom Race Challenge
If you choose the option to challenge, the Broom Race will begin. Go through the goal in the same way as the last Flight Test and try to reach the goal faster than Imelda.
Additionally, the more you yellow bubbles you pop, the faster your broom will accelerate. This allows you to reach the goal faster. If you pop an average of two yellow bubbles per section consistently, you should be able to break Imelda's record.
Manipulate the ring and bubble so that they are in a straight line
If you can't move the broom the way you want, try moving the broom so that the ring and bubbles are in a straight line. Move the right stick so that the rings and bubbles line up in the center of the screen, then use the left stick to control the camera to fine-tune the path.

Is the next quest unlocked through story progression?
The next side quest regarding the broom upgrade, "The Sky is the Limit" may not occur until you clear "The Headmistress Speaks" at the end of the story. If "The Sky is the Limit" does not occur even after killing time, proceed with the story first.
