Ravenclaw,Practice

Juniper was nervous about this last practice before their upcoming game. She knew there was a lot riding on this, especially seeing as the Slytherins had quite a bit of experience winning the house cup. But Blake was gone, and maybe this was their chance to really earn the thing this time. As the team came out on the field, Juniper raised her voice and she leaned her bat on her shoulder. "Alright, I know we're ready to take Slytherin out. I want everyone to focus on what they need to this practice. Seekers, try to catch the snitch as many times as you can. Chasers, work on passing and stealing. Keepers, block as much as you can, and us beaters should try to cause as much chaos as possible." She knew this wasn't the most strategic practice, but hopefully it would allow them to go into the game prepared and not exhausted. "Let's do this!" she said, before releasing all the balls and tossing the quaffle out.
 
Hamish jumped right into his search.
 
Niklaus listened to Juniper and then grabbed the Quaffle once it was thrown in the game.
 
Finn didn't think he would ever know what he was doing on this team, but the fact that he was preparing for a championship match felt beyond surreal. He was determined to get in as much practice as possible, kicking off with his teammates and flying towards one of the bludgers.
 
Juniper took the sky and figured she'd make a goal to get in a hit for every player before the practice was over.
 
Xiuying was nervous but excited for the upcoming match. She listened carefully to Juniper before the practice began. She was a bit annoyed she didn't manage to catch the quaffle, but followed Niklaus closely, hoping to maybe steel the quaffle.
 
Flying towards a bludger Finn caught up and swung hard, wincing when his shot flew wide of any of his teammates. Not a terrific start, but at least he hadn't missed the ball itself.
 
Sawyer had been trying to slip in extra practices as much as he could this semester, it was a good way to keep his mind off other things even if the growing anxiety about the fact they were playing a championship match soon was enough to worry about on its own. He gave Juniper a thumbs up as she addressed the team, seeing no issue in her practice plan as he took up his post near the hoops, rolling his shoulders as Niklaus approached with the quaffle.
 
Branson kept close to the chaser who had grabbed the ball.
 
Valeria began looking for bludgers to hit as soon as she got in the air.
 
Nik tried his shot to aim for the hoops but failed, just shrugged shoulders and just took a lap around the pitch.
 
Finn flew on, keeping an eye on the bludgers and a firm grip on his broom.
 
Xiuying grabbed the quaffle once it was thrown back, making a lap around the pitch and heading towards the hoops
 
There was a different level of excitement for this practice. Axel didn't have any reason to think he'd be playing in the championship match, but he was excited to help his teammates practice. He flew towards the goals straight away, and got ready to do his job, blocking the first quaffle to come his way.
 
Hamish kept looking for the snitch.
 
Branson followed the other chaser who grabbed the ball after Nik.
 
Valeria tried to hit a bludger and failed.
 
When Xiuying was close enough to the hoops, she threw the ball into the middle hoop, she cheered when she managed to get it through the hoop.
 
After Xiuying scored, Nik grabbed the Quaffle.
 
Juniper was excited to see how quickly the chasers scored, giving Xiuying a thumbs up before chasing after a bludger and hitting it right at @Hamish Reid since he was gonna need practice fighting through the pain for sure.

  • Hamish - 1
 
Hamish yelped when a bludger smacked into him, but pushed aside the pain and kept going, more determined now to catch the snitch.
 
Nik a bit daringly looked at the keeper once he finally approached the hoops and winningly cheered as the Quaffle went through the hoops.
 
Watching the other chasers score, Branson grabbed the quaffle with some nervousness. He began circling back to the hoops hoping he wouldn't be the one to not score.
 
Hamish continued his search, perking up when he saw a bit of gold. He shot after it, cheering as he surfaced with the snitch in hand.
