Mihael Quidditch Practice/Try-Outs

[Avery Moretti]

A lot of members on the Mihael Quidditch Team are inactive, so Try-Outs are still open even though the team is full. Anyone who wants to be on the team is automatically made a substitute, and if one of the team members becomes very inactive, they may be replaced by a substitute. The more active the substitute, and the less active the team member, the more likely that substitute will replace that team member.

As a team member [including substitutes], I expect you to be active on the forums. Showing up to every practice and participating fully is a must, and failure to do so may result in you being removed from the team. We want Quidditch to actually begin on the forums, and everyone really needs to try their best to make that happen. If you're going to be away for a long period of time, please PM me.

Don't stay on the team if you can't make the commitment.

Thank you. :]

Hm, last practice hadn't really gone as well as Avery planned. Not too many of the team members showed up. This greatly disappointed her, because a lot of the team members were her friends and she didn't want to lecture them or kick them off the team. However, she was given the responsibility of being a Captain in her third year, which was a huge achievement, as she was the first third year Captain [she thought], and she was going to do her best.

Last time they hadn't really been able to start practice at all because of the small amount of people who showed up. She had discussed team jerseys to make them feel more like a team, and people seemed to like that idea. Avery had looked into it, and made a design and everything and had the plan ready to get the jerseys. However, she wasn't going to order any until the team was concrete. Brendan had sent her an owl saying he was leaving the school, so that was another person off the team. Plus, she needed to get the sizes of the players so that she could buy those sizes of jerseys and make the order.

Dressed in a pair of gray sweatpants and a long, tight green Greeley Estates t-shirt over a tight, long-sleeved shirt, the girl made her way down to the Quidditch Pitch with her broom in hand. Today, she didn't really have a solid plan for the practice/try-out. She would just see who showed up, and go from there. Skater type/gangster DC black shoes were on her feet, and she was also carrying a bag with her. Her Mihael scarf was wrapped tightly around her neck, and she had a brown hat on with ear flaps as well as mittens. It was cold out, after all.

Once she was down at the Pitch, she took out the keys to the team building and unlocked it. They wouldn't sit outside in the snow and cold to chat. Rather, they'd have their discussion inside the changing room area and then go out if they needed to. Sitting on one of the benches, she sat Indian style and took a container out of the bag. Taking the lid off of the container, she set it down beside her. There were big, double chocolate chip muffins inside. It was always good to give her teammates a snack before a practice. It would energize them.

Now, all she had to do was wait for people to arrive. Hopefully some new people would come, as well.

Aaliyah was unsure why the captain would be holding practice in this weather. It was that nasty kind of November weather when it was too cold and not snowy enough to be a happy winter. Aaliyah had yet to understand why snow made winter so much warmer. Perhaps it was because she was too distracted by the snow to care about the cold. Well, whatever it was, Aaliyah wished it was snowing at the moment.

To keep warm, Liyah put on a black, knit hat. She stuffed all her pink hair under it so it couldn't be seen at the moment. She wasn't sure if she wanted her teammates to see it just yet. She was still trying to get used to it herself. Then she grabbed a fleece jacket, gloves, and her sneakers before heading out the door of the Mihael common room and down to the Quidditch pitch.

"Cap'n Avery," Aaliyah said as she came into the changing room. She saluted her fellow Mihael before sitting on a bench herself. Then she eyed the double chocolate chip muffins in the container next to Avery and smirked. "Incentives to attend practice. Methinks that's a good idea."

Kaelyn walked out to the quidditch pitch, at a time that was relatively early for her. She still had a ton of homework to do, but really, quidditch came before homework on her priority list. And she needed a break anyway.

She walked through the changing room on her way to the pitch and stopped, surprised. Avery and Aaliyah were sitting on the benches and they had muffins. Well this was a cool practice already.

She joined them, took off her gloves (it wouldn't do to get crumbs stuck to them) and helped herself to a muffin. "I like these snacks before practice, Avery. Very good idea."

She looked around. There weren't very many people yet. She looked back at Avery. "Are we actually going to get to fly today?" She asked. She hoped so, even if she didn't really want to go out into the cold.[/font]

Quidditch practice. It had been a while since Levi had attended one of those :x Today he was in a good mood and he really felt like playing quiddtich so he decided to show up. Now this may sound like Levi is an arrogant boy who only does something when he feels like it, so not true! He tried to find a good reason for him not attending the precious practices, but he couldn't find one. There was no good reason why he could let down his friend. Thinking of it, it had been a while since he had spoken to Avery.

Dressed in a pair of gray jogging trousers and a warm black sweater, Levi was walking towards the pitch. He wasn't in the mood for playing dress up, besides, it was important to wear something comfy while flying, right? He couldn't help but a yawn escaped his mouth. He was sooo tired. If he could only take a little more sleep... No no, he didn't allow himself to think about his warm bed now, he had to focus on the bludgers. Bludgers bludgers bludgers x.O

"Morning Av, Aaliyah, Kaelyn." He tried to sound as awake as possible, without sounding as if he had just eaten a box of Victor's hyper winegums. [Gah!] He sat down next to Avery and then he noticed the muffins she had standing next to her. "Ooo, yammi!" He said with a grin.
