Hufflepuff Quidditch Practice: Tryouts Open [[Jun-Aug 2024]]

[Yukina101]

Some people talk about ya like they know all about ya
When you get down they doubt ya
And when you tip it on the scene, yeah they talkin' bout it
Cause they can't tip on the scene
They just talk about it, t-t-t-talk bout it

☙❧Lia was excited about this new season, now invigorated from last year's non failing. Sure they didn't win any games but! She also didn't have to tie or never spot during a game! She waved and gave greetings to her teammates and to some of the newer people trying out. Hopefully she could at least win a game for Mary since this was her final year.

Time: 2045-2046
Location: Hufflepuff Quidditch Team Try Outs
------------------------------------------------------------------------xx

Mary had to say that she was quite happy with the turnout to tryouts considering the awful luck her house had had for a few years now. In fact it was so awful that many bullies from other houses made sure they went out of their way to remind Hufflepuff of their bad luck with quidditch. Even those who never went to the games were aware of the bad luck. Still, Mary tried her best to give an encouraging smile to everyone that picked up an application. Once she gathered up the paperwork from all the Hufflepuff team hopefuls she came to Ilene to discuss their plan on tryouts.

After a minute or two, Mary announced, "Welcome everyone! I am so glad to see each and every one of your happy faces. I know this is in many ways a competition but I want everyone to have fun, too. No use playing quidditch if you can't enjoy it, right? Alright, so we're going to do a small game of quidditch so Ilene and I can get a feel of how everyone works with each other and how certain positions suit each of you. I'm going to break you up into two teams. Team One will have Bethany and Jordan as Chasers, Philip and Lucas as Beaters, Dagrun as Keeper, and Gideon as Seeker. Team Two will have Shui and Saffron as Chasers, Ilene and Ollie as Beaters, Roland as Keeper, and Mahilia as Seeker."

Smiling Mary readied the quaffle for the toss as well as readying the release of the bludgers and the snitch. Once everyone was ready, Mary called out as she tossed the quaffle, "And let the game begin!"

Saffron kicked off the ground eagerly as the quaffle was tossed into the air. She was excited to play! And she was teammates with Shui! How convenient! Saf dove after the quaffle, hoping to beat out either Bethany or Jordan, both of them were stiff competition.

Gideon listened as the team captain began her announcements. Sure, he'd have fun just flying around on a real broom, but he thought he might have even more fun winning a quidditch game, or catching the winning snitch. He glanced as his teammates as the anticipation mounted, he wasn't all that worried, just a little nervous. What if he fell or something? Well, they'd probably just take him to the hospital wing. Gideon mounted his broom as the quaffle, snitch and bludgers were released. And as a chaser kicked off almost immediately, he took that cue and ascended into the sky to begin his search.

Gideon squinted as he scanned the sky for the snitch. This was shaping up to be a lot more difficult than he was anticipating...

☙❧Lia grinned as Bethany ran over just as Mary began the usual announcements for tryouts. She agreed that they should have fun, but her competitive nature made her really really want to win. At least just once. As soon as they were split into teams, she finished up her stretches and jumped onto her broom waiting for the snitch to be released and then began her search.

Philip watched as Saffron went up for the quaffle, and before he could even see the outcome, he aimed at the redhead. The beater didn’t have much time to think about what he was doing, but he knew he had to make quick decisions when out on the pitch.

When the tryouts had officially begun, Jordan was up in the air in a faceoff with Saffron for the quaffle. He tried his best to make it to the ball before she could.

Lucas waved at his mate as he made his way over. “Oh, yeah! Ecstatic!” he exclaimed, showing off his broom. “It was my mum’s when she was in Hogwarts. And she led her team to victory with it,” he stated matter-of-factly. Maybe one day, he would be able to do the same for his house. Just when Luke was about to ask Roland if he was getting a new broom, Mary had begun tryouts. “Looks like we’re on opposite teams. Good luck,” he said, holding out his hand to shake before jumping onto his broom and taking off into the air. The captain hadn’t said anything about how beaters weren’t allowed to aim at seekers, so Lucas decided he’d try and hit Mahalia after it appeared as though she had spotted the snitch.

Before Saffron could even get her hands on the quaffle, she was hit with a bludger. "Oof..." She groaned. She did her best to ignore the pain and push through. Though, it'd probably leave a pretty nasty bruise. Saf somehow managed to pull away with the quaffle, surprising herself, before glancing around. She knew Shui was faster than her, so as she flew toward the goals, she passed the quaffle to the older chaser, though making sure to keep pace just in case he needed the support.

Gideon hovered for a bit, maybe staying stationary would be better for spotting than constantly moving? He noticed the other seeker had spotted...something? He flew in her direction, hoping to spot that same thing.

☙❧Lia spotted the snitch just as a bludger rammed into her side nearly knocking her off course. Luckily she could still see the fluttering back and started after it.

Gideon was feeling mildly frustrated, which was an impressive feat for him. The snitch was just so small! He took a deep breath, trying to spot the thing.
