Y51 S1 Beauxbatons Quidditch Practice

[Colette Martin]

Beauxbatons,Practice
Colette felt like the tryouts had gone fairly well, she'd gotten some new members for the team and overall she felt like her first tryouts as a Captain had gone quite well. She'd already sent a letter to both her brothers about it, feeling quite proud, and gotten a response and a half. The blonde was excited as she walked towards the pitch to set up for their practice, though some of the new people in the team weren't as strong fliers yet she had faith the team would do well and she'd be willing to help those out that needed it. As her teammates began gathering on the pitch Colette gave them each a smile and nod of hello. "Bonjour! I know this year we won't be having a match against the other schools and such but if I see any of you lacking because of that.." She addressed the team, giving each of them a look. "Well do expect me to call you out on it." She finished brightly. "Alright enough chitchat, everyone just get on your brooms and do your best!" Col said and with a clap of her hands she headed for her own broom.

Out of Character:

No arrivals just get into it!

 

[Alexander Vasileiou]

Alex was glad to make the team finally, he had no doubt being on a quidditch team would impress a certain Gryffindor next time they saw each other. Not only just being in the team but a Beater, given that beaters usually needed to be quite strong with the bat and all. Walking to the pitch he listened to the fourth year captain before nodding and taking his broom and getting right to work trying to locate a bludger.

 

[Aysel Berry]

Aysel was glad to have made the team, too bad she was terrible at flying. She hopped on her broom, making to grab the Quaffle, but dropped it immediately.

 

[Felton Meldrum]

Felton was looking forward to working with Alex, maybe they'd make some good friends, he could do with some of those. Jumping on his broom, Felton started hunting for a bludger.

 

[Colette Martin]

Colette followed behind the younger Chaser so when the girl dropped the Quaffle she followed up grabbing it for herself. "Just look what I do and follow with me, you'll get the hang of it eventually. Oui?" She said to the younger girl with a smile.

 

[Alexander Vasileiou]

Alex focused on a bludger as he saw one and when he got close enough to it he smacked it with his bat straight at @Juneau Delarue . Oof hopefully it wasn't too bad of a hit.

 

[Colette Martin]

Colette flew towards the hoops, glancing at the younger girl before looking at the hoops and taking aim. She threw the Quaffle at the middle hoop and watched it sail cleanly through..

 

[Aysel Berry]

One girl seemed to score and it didnt look too hard. The first year flew forward again, and unfortuantely immediately then started flying backwards instead.

 

[Alexander Vasileiou]

Alexander twirled his bat around as he looked for a second bludger to smack.

 

[Paloma Morales]

Paloma had been quite surprised that she made the quidditch team as a second year, but here she was, ready to go. She listened to their captain explain the situation and felt a bit of relief. She would have time to get better at the sport. Paloma took to her broom and headed on into the air.

 

[Felton Meldrum]

Alex looked quite at home on his broom.

 

[Colette Martin]

Colette watched as the first year tried to fly forward, to grab the Quaffle presumably, but started going backwards. "Merlin, here you gotta lean forward like so and just focus on the uh direction you want to go." Colette tried her best to show the girl, but she was no flight instructor and wasn't quite sure how to explain the whole flying to the girl.

 

[Alexander Vasileiou]

Alex was feeling very at home on his broom. So much so that when he spotted a bludger he swung at it hard and sent it hurtling right at @Aysel Berry .... Welp that one he did feel pretty bad for since the girl seemed to be having issues in general. "My bad!"

 

[Aysel Berry]

Aysel was trying to follow Colette, wondering if the Captain already regretted her decisions. As Aysel began to fly forward finally, she was stopped in her tracks by a bludger crashing into her shoulder. She swore loudly. "Really?!"

 

[Felton Meldrum]

Magic was strange. There wasn't really a muggle sport that compared to Quidditch, and Felton was glad he was finally able to expand his repertoire of experiences. He flew towards Aysel, smacking the bludger away from her and right back at @Alexander Vasileiou instead. At least he could probably defend himself.

 

[Professor Adorah Zumwalt]

Oops

 

[Paloma Morales]

Paloma hovered on her broom for a moment taking in the field. She didn’t see the snitch anywhere, but she was sure that it would take a while to show.

 

[Colette Martin]

"Well done!" Colette was in the middle of praising the first year when some a**hole decided it would be the perfect time to smack a bludger at the girl. Glaring at the oldest beater the Captain had half a mind to flip him off, but then Alex was hit too. "Nice one!" She called out over to Felton before grabbing the Quaffle. "Okay you got the flying down now? Do you want the Quaffle?" She offered Aysel. @Aysel Berry

 

[Alexander Vasileiou]

No sooner than he'd looked away did Alexander feel the bludger collide with his side. Touching the sore spot he glanced to Felton who'd gotten a fairly good hit on him and though he wasn't all that happy about it he supposed he'd deserved it.

 

[Paloma Morales]

Paloma thought she saw something flying in the distance and decided to look into it, leaning forward on her broom to go closer.

 

[Aysel Berry]

Aysel, now feeling as though she was somewhat redeemed, nodded to the Captain, "Sure, hit me." Perhaps that was the wrong choice of words.

 

[Felton Meldrum]

In quick succession, another bludger came hurtling in Felton's direction, and he made a quick decision to send it towards the Seeker @Paloma Morales.

 

[Colette Martin]

Colette passed the Quaffle to Aysel, hoping to see the first year score.

 

[Alexander Vasileiou]

Felton seemed to be on a roll but so was Alexander, when he saw the bludger hit their seeker the sixth year chased after it and hit it at another one of the Chasers. @Beau Pratt

[Alexander Vasileiou]

Alex continued to search for a bludger, one hand on his broom and the other twirling his bat at his side idly.
