That was twice now that her shot was blocked. Rider frowned intensely, then did some flying maneuvers to try to confuse him before taking her shot. C'mon Rider, you can do this, she thought to herself as she completed her maneuvers. Then she took her shot without a moment's hesitation.

"There are big ships and small ships."
Lionel readied himself for another shot from Rider, feeling a bit confident that he can stop another. Or at least, he hoped that was the case. Reading the girl's body language, he jumped the shot in hopes that he would get to it. It was a harder shot and it was probably because the girl's desire to score was a lot greater after Lionel's two saves.
The shot went in unfortunately, him misjudging the speed and overjumping just by the slightest degree. He raced down to grab the quaffle. He then passed it back to the girl, a little dismayed that he actually let one in, but hey, no one was perfect.

Elsie knew their time on the pitch was drawing to a close. While she still didn't have as many people there as she would have liked, as she least she had a rough idea of who she wanted where. All that was left to do was to consult with Cathy on her choices. "That's all for today, everyone!" she yelled. "Please land! If a few people could help me get all the equipment put away, that would be great. Cathy and I are going to discuss things, and the team will be announced shortly." As soon as everything was packed away, she motioned over to Cathy and began talking in a low, earnest tone as soon as the other girl came over.

Cathy had managed to convince one of her housemates to help her carry down the balls and some extra school brooms earlier that afternoon, and now she once again returned the field with a stack of sign up sheets and some quills for signing up. This was the year the team was handed over to her hands, and while Cathy didn't necessarily have the best of hopes of actually winning any games (not that she'd mention that to her teammates, but the seekers on the other teams tended to be fairly strong compared to theirs), she was determined to not have her team the Hufflepuffs be considered an easy win. Smiling she set up the quills and sign up sheets on the bench and began to stretch some as she waited. She already had her vice captain lined up in her head, and she doubted Rider would say no, and as long as Iris didn't do something stupid to get herself injured, Cathy could at least be confident in her chasers. Or likely. Who knew there could always be some dark horse player who was actually fantastic.

"There are big ships and small ships."
The young Argentine keeper wanted to get to the pitch early so he could get his stretches in before they started up. He figured that they would have to do the usual signing up thing, since there were new players and all. He didn't know why they would have to do it a second time, but he wasn't one to go against anything either.
He walked onto the pitch to see Cathy was already there. Of course she was because she was captain. Walking up to her with a smile, he waved to her. "Hey Cap," he said to her. He went to do the necessary paperwork before the tryout and then he went to stretching just a few meters away so he wasn't in the way.

Emma was excited to finally be able to tryout for Quidditch. Why? Because she loved flying. The sport was great too. Plus it helped when your uncle was the advanced flying professor. Skipping onto the field Emma took a form and filled it out. She would like to play chaser at some point but truthfully she didn't care what position she played. Either way she hoped that she could have fun and get on the team. Handing in the form, Emma just remained quiet since she didn't know anyone. For now she'd just wait for tryouts to begin, if only she hadn't come relatively early. Oh well at least it showed good initiative.

Location: Pitch - Hufflepuff Try-outs
Alice skipped onto the field right with Jasper right next to her. It was their last year and they were going to do their best. She already could tell. Smiling brightly she took a forum, handing one to Jasper. "Hello everyone, let's do our best this year." she said before filling out the form like she did the year before and handing it in. Stretching a bit Alice was excited. Granted she knew she had a lot of improvement to do when it came to playing Seeker. If anything maybe they could win a few games. Though, she wasn't going to hold her breath. Alice looked to Jasper before giving him a small smile, she was going to do her best and he knew it. This was ending year and she wanted to win one.

Jasper walked onto the pitch with Alice by his side. It sure was nice being close with her again. "Hey guys, ready for the year?" Jasper asked, happy to be on the field. Taking the forum from Alice before filling it out, Jasper couldn't wait for his final year to get underway. He was going to try even harder this year. He really wanted to enjoy the year and coming out with a win would top it off big time. Smiling at Alice, Jasper wasn't so worried about her playing anymore. He knew he needed to let up even if he didn't always want to. Alice wasn't a little kid anymore she was an adult and he needed to treat her like such.

Rider walked on down to the Quidditch pitch with a surprisingly cheer bounce in her step, her new broom slung over her shoulder. She'd spent a lot of time familiarizing herself with the broom and she was confident that it would help her. She was a lot more confident about her flying abilities now that she'd taken advanced flying. As she walked onto the pitch, she smiled at Cathy. There was a decent turn out so far. She set her broom down and pulled out her new Quidditch gear. The shiny goggles and pristine dragon skin gloves she'd bought seemed to sparkle, only making the girl shine brighter.

Siobhan'Hannah'Grey Hufflepuff │ First Year │ Eleven Years Old │ Single │ Position
Hannah was whistling the quidditch chant for the Irish National Team as she happily made her way out to the pitch. Though she knew First Years rarely made the teams, even as Reserves, Hannah knew she had to give it her best shot. Besides, she figured, Da played for Hufflepuff when he was a student, so it had to count for something.
Her long hair was pulled back into a bushy ponytail with a Hufflepuff ribbon, while she wore an emerald green Irish team jersey whose hem ended at about her knees, and a pair of jeans. A Hufflepuff kerchief was worn about her small waist as a belt so her jersey wouldn't balloon out during flight, while she'd added Hufflepuff shoelaces with little golden badger charms upon their ends to her shoes.
What she really wanted was to have that prize of prizes, her own broomstick. School rules prohibited First Years from owing one, or even borrowing one for tryouts, and her parents hadn't seen a reason to get her one (despite copious amounts of pleading. She'd tried to get her cousin to loan hers, but Linny reminded her it was against school rules. Of course, she also hadn't told Momma she was even trying out, and if she made the team... well, it would be one more reason for her to ask for her own broomstick for Christmas. It was too bad, as she knew Linny owned a fast broom, and it could have helped her where lack of experience would fail (of course, Linny pointed out she would more likely pile it into the pitch, but that was her cousin). Instead she would use one of the school broomsticks, and hope it had enough enchantment left in it to keep it and her aloft.
As she arrived on the pitch, relatively early, she quickly spotted their captain, a blonde girl not much taller than Hannah was herself. With breathless, wide-eyed excitement, Hannah gushed, "Hi, Captain League. I'd like to join your team, please."
Hannah collected a form and a quill and started filling out the required lines. "Hi, Emma," she added, with a wave, to her fellow First Year.

Iris headed down to the pitch, broom in hand. Cathy would kill her if she missed tryouts this year. There were already several people milling around the field. Drawing closer to the captain, she leaned over and dropped a quick feather light peck on the other Chaser's lips and pulled back just as fast. "Hey, told you I'd make it!" she joked, grabbing a sign up sheet.

Zeph smiled as he got to the pitch, his hand gripped firmly on his new broom. His dad had gotten it over the summer, and Zeph had refused to use it until he at least worked for it. Given Deveron's expression when he heard this, he didn't think his father had expected for him to earn the broom. However, he had (and probably given the house elves an apoplexy since he was doing a lot of their chores to boot) and was now going to see how well he did on it. It was a Firebolt, so he just hoped that it did well enough. It should, in any case. It was the best broom back when his father was in school, so he didn't doubt that it could still perform.
He walked up and picked up a form to fill out before he handed it back to Cathy with a smile and a wave."Hey Cathy! I should do better this year. My cousin helped me over the summer with my swing, so I shouldn't be so lousy on the pitch this year."He then made his way over to Leo and gave his friend a friendly shoulder shove."Leo! Don't tell me you're getting all serious already? I mean, season hasn't even started yet."Despite his words, he dropped into his own set of stretches and waited to see when tryouts would start. He was anxious to get up on a broom already, and was glad that his dad lived far enough from muggles that they didn't have to worry about him being seen by anyone when he went flying.
