For someone who could see the future, little came as a surprise to Esme anymore, but receiving the title of Slytherin Captain alongside Lucien had been a pleasant one. Out of the members of the team her friend was the only one whom posed any real competition for the spot, so the two as co-captains worked out perfectly for her. Together, they would have no problem knocking out the opposing houses and winning the cup for their last year at the academy. It was their final chance, and Esme was not going to let victory slip through her fingers. Not this time.
With Lucien by her side, and the pitch set up for the house try outs, Esme waited for the arrival of the would-be players. The Quidditch box rumbled at the witches feet, the bludgers strapped tightly down inside already restless and waiting to escape its confines - a whole 149 pounds of solid iron itching to be released. Esme placed her heel firmly on the lid to silence its rumblings, and her eyes surveyed the distant faces of approaching students bearing green ties. It had been difficult not to scratch some of the previous members names from the list - Charlotte's, in particular - and part of her hoped the brat wouldn't make an appearance.
As soon as what she assumed would be everyone had gathered, the seeress began. "Welcome. For those of you who, somehow, don't know who I am - my name is Esme Lancaster. My partner here is Lucien Snow and we are your new captains this year. We're Chasers, which sets the standard for that position if anyone is interest in filling as an alternate. We are not looking for players who are here just for fun. I want to see passion and dedication. You are either in it to win, or not at all. I hope I make myself clear." She stopped speaking, scrutinizing the faces of those who were present, trying to discern which among them were really set on playing for the cup. She didn't think the other teams would pose much of a threat this year as they had last, especially given whom had been elected for their house captains. But that did not give Slytherin room to slack off. "Now, before you all take to the air, I'll need your names and the positions you intend to try out for. You are capable of trying out for more than one. Once in the air, you will be instructed to take your positions. I don't think I need to explain what each position is required to do. If anyone doesn't know, feel free to leave now, otherwise, step forward, speak your name, and get ready to take off. We start now." She finished and removed her heel from the box, kicked open its front latches, and prepared for them to begin.

- Out of Character:
- Players from the previous year are guaranteed their spot without needing to try out again - as long as attendance is posted before try-outs are over. Alternates, however, will need to try out again.
Despite there currently being only one position available, there is always a chance prior members might not return, and a need for alternates if players are unavailable. First years are required to PM me for approval before attempting to try out - which will only be accepted if there is a need for more players.
