Hᴇᴀᴛʜᴇʀ was glad to see people arriving at the Pitch for tryouts, especially the newer faces. There was Ada, who seemed a bit nervous about the entire situation. The fifth year was grateful for her appearance, though, and smiled at the girl. "Welcome, Ada. I hope you're ready for a workout." It didn't take long for William to find his way to her. She watched him approach her, teal eyes blinking, wondering what he would say. What he did say shocked her. "Will... I may be the Captain of this team, but I'm a friend first. You could have told me. I would have understood. But that's all in the past now. Let's just work extra hard for this year, okay?" She patted his shoulder and looked to the others that had joined them. Steele was here, as was Ari. Heather was glad that her Vice Captain had arrived in a timely manner. It only reassured her of her choice from last term. "Hey, Ari. Good to see you here, Steele." As if on cue, Tobi came running onto the Pitch. Heather grinned seeing her young Beater as energetic as ever. He came up to her, grinning widely. "Hi, Tobi. Ready for another great year? 'Cause I sure am." There was a sound from the stands, and Heather quickly spotted Nell, cheering on Ada. Aww. That's nice of her. She waved at her younger friend, then turned towards a newcomer on the field. This girl was a first year by the name of Olyvia. "Welcome, Olyvia. I suggest some light stretching. You're gonna need it before the action starts." So many new faces. Well, two, but that was a lot for this team. Maybe they would actually have some reserves this year. Heather sighed at the thought just as Dhylan came up to her, smiling and calling her by her tease of a nickname. The teenager glanced at him. "Yes. Perfect weather for Quidditch, wouldn't you say, Dhyl?" She was glad that they were still friends. After last year, she was afraid that he would never talk to her again. He was still her best friend, even if they weren't together in a romantic way. Cracking her knuckles, Heather stepped into the middle of the Pitch. "Alright, listen up! First things first, the paperwork. Fill out this form and give it back to me. Then, do a few stretches and get in the air. Take a couple laps around the Pitch. Then, we'll start the tryouts officially." Her voice was loud, booming so she could be heard by all ears. In one hand, the forms. In the other, a few pencils. Somehow, Heather had a feeling that this year would be an amazing season for them. Yes, the Badgers had a shot at the win this term. She could feel it.

Ada smiled widely at Olyvia, chuckling a little. "I don't really think that Michelle knows that I play Quidditch, actually. She knows I like to fly, but I'm not really sure I ever mentioned that I wanted to try out and play." Ada took the parchment from Heather and smiled, a small blush on her face. She'd stretched a bit on the way here, taking lunge steps most of the way. She hadn't known if they'd be given an opportunity to warm up... which she supposed was silly. She started filling out the form.

Ada handed the form back to Heather, stepped away and started stretching her legs and arms out. She then did a back bend and then laid down, flexing her legs over her head. She thought it might look strange, but they were the best way to stretch her back out, which she needed. Her father had showed her just how important it was to be able to twist and turn without moving your legs and hips over the summer, when he'd sent himself spinning through the air in an attempt to catch the Quaffle. She giggled a bit at the memory. After she got her back stretched, she grabbed her broom, glancing at Olyvia. "I'm gonna go ahead and do my laps. Maybe when you finish the form and stretching, you can try to catch up. See how fast we both are." Ada didn't know if it'd ever come out before here at school, but she was ever so slightly competitive. Not with academics, but certainly with athletics, especially flying. Plus, she was curious about how good of a flyer Lyv was. And she maybe wanted a chance to show off how good she was before the tryouts actually started, since she wouldn't really be that nervous just flying laps. She mounted her broom and took off, flying high, her adrenaline surging, and laughed a bit. This was nice. This was fun. She could totally do this.

The redhead usually filled her second position with chaser, but she really didn't even want to put that on there. Of course, she knew if someone was better than her at being the seeker, she could lose her spot, but how likely was that really? She did a couple leg stretches before waiting around again.

William smiled to her. And as she accepted his sincerest apology, it made him quite happy. He wanted to make sure that nothing was going wrong between the two of them. He couldn't afford for that to happen. "Thank you," he said to her, glad that she decided to forgive him. To make up for it, he would work hard, th hardest he has ever done. That was sure to keep their team on track. If they all see one person working hard, they will all want to.
Will, a newfound confidence found within him, started to write on the piece of paper, glad to be filling this out again. It brought him back to the days with Aerynn Mckenny and Bailey Oliver, when he had been that hard working, fast little kid who was great at Quidditch for whatever reason.

 Corabell Kiremono~Hufflepuff First Year~Half-Blood
Corabell slipped down to the field, looking around. She wasn't particularly interested in playing such a popular game and having the eyes of the entire school on her, but she had promised herself she would be more outgoing this year. Besides, her siblings both played, and seemed to like the game, maybe she would like it too.
Taking one of the forms, Corabell started filling it out. She didn't really know if she had any special skills, she hadn't flown much. Oh, position? She bit her lip. Well, Seeker...Corabell couldn't imagine playing directly in competition with Shina, in the most prestigious and important position on the team. Just thinking about it tied her stomach in knots. That left Beater, Chaser, and Keeper. Well...she wrote Chaser as her first choice, then Keeper and Beater as her second choices, then handed the paper in before she could chicken out.

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
Hᴇᴀᴛʜᴇʀ read over every form as they were handed to her. Ada desired to be a Chaser, as did Olyvia. Hmm. Interesting. Her two new recruits trying for the same spot. And they were obviously friends. This would be fun to watch. Ari was clear in her choice of position, having been the team Seeker for four years now. Tobi wanted his spot as Beater again this year, which Heather expected. That kid had done well in keeping up with her last term, and was a pretty decent player. William was trying for his previous position as Chaser and Steele as Keeper. No surprises there. Dhylan was last, his desired position being Chaser of course. Nothing surprised her in these forms. "Now that that's done, let's-" Suddenly, another girl crept onto the field. This one, another first year, seemed shy and reserved as she filled out her form. Heather watched her, instantly flashing back to her first few years at Hogwarts. She had been that girl, shy enough not to say anything, but still just brave enough to try out for the Quidditch team. After the form had been returned to her, she read it over and smiled. This girl, Corabell, would hopefully find friends here, maybe even open up a bit, just like she had back in the day. "Welcome, Corabell. I suggest you do a few stretches, then hop on a broom and take a couple of laps around the Pitch. We'll get started here shortly." The teen took this time to do her own stretches, focusing not only on her arms and shoulders, but her back and core as well. She had learned over the years that hitting a Bludger doesn't just strain your arms, but pretty much all of your upper body. Hence, she took extra precautions and stretched every part of that area. Mounting her Silver Arrow, the fifth year took off into the sky. Her new broom was perfect for her, she figured. Light, agile... It was no Firebolt like her sister had, but she liked this one just fine. It seemed to be made for her. Heather did her laps, her short hair fluttering in the wind, before circling around and back to the center of the field, landing gracefully on the ground. "Listen up, guys! We're gonna get started with a little practice game, just like always. Dhylan, Ada, and Steele, you'll be one team. That means William, Olyvia, and Corabell, you'll be the other team. Corabell, if you don't mind, I'd like to see how you fair as a Keeper. I don't know what it is... but something about you just screams 'Keeper' to me." She smiled in the first year's general direction. "Ari, seeing as you're the only Seeker we have, and with your past experience, I expect you to catch that Snitch in no time at all. Tobi, you and I will have some target practice away from the others. Don't want anyone getting hurt today, now do we?" As if on cue, the girl released the Snitch into the sky, which teasingly circled the Seeker before flying away. With a few flicks of her wand, Heather sent targets into the air around the outside area of the Pitch. They were motionless, for now. Eying the four Chaser's, Heather could clearly see the fire in their eyes. She tossed the Quaffle up. "Let the game begin!"

Corabell Kiremono~Hufflepuff First Year~Half-Blood
Corabell nodded, sliding into a quick short form to make sure she was loose and ready. She’d already practiced this morning, and still felt the warm awareness, but nerves had a way of bunching and knotting muscles. The familiar sweeps of her arms and legs relaxed her, and just over two minutes later Corabell exhaled as she lowered her arms. Going over to the brooms, she selected a Cleansweep that didn’t look too battered.
Corabell took to the air as the Captain had suggested. Good, the broom didn’t seem to pull to either side, and while the sustained speed wasn’t anything to brag about, the acceleration, cornering, and braking were all pretty good. It would do for now, she didn’t want to hold up practice. If she made Chaser, she’d test out the available brooms to find one better suited to the sort of acrobatics Chasers indulged in.
Corabell circled back just in time to hear the position and team assignments. …oh. Maybe she wouldn’t need to swap brooms. If she was playing Keeper, this broom was actually pretty suited to the position. “Understood,” she called, flying over to the goal rings.

Adalaide, having come back down to hear what was up, bit back an annoyed sort of sigh when Heather put Steele on her team. She was still rather miffed at him over his rather stupidly asking Olyvia why she'd passed out... before she woke up. But, he was Keeper, right? So how much would they be interacting, really? She'd sort of hoped, when he and the older boy showed up, that there would be enough people trying out to replace them both, since they'd bailed on their team last year. She was sort of hopeful that she, Lyv, and the other first year.. Corabell, Heather had called her? would all make the team, since she thought that would fill all the slots. But, the other two had experience, and were more likely to make it. She sighed and mounted her broom again, ready to begin... and could hardly contain her surprise, and actually, a bit of pride, when Olyvia beat Dhylan for the Quaffle. Good for her! But as soon as that thought crossed her mind, Ada's game face went on, and she reminded herself that, for now, Lyv was her opponent. She immediately made her way to the first year, excitement surging through her, and made an attempt at stealing the ball.
