Last year had resulted in not making the team. Perhaps she was not good enough, or perhaps Mr. MacFusty really hadn't wanted too many young ladies in his team. Reasonable, though it also left her quite disappointed.

But this year was a new one. Perhaps she would make the team this year. If not, it might be a sign that she wasn't meant to play quidditch on a normal team. Holly would likely be pleased by that. Father didn't seem to care either way. Drusilla might be pleased, but who cares what she thinks.

Listening to Miss Browne, she nodded slightly as the fellow Gryffindor spoke. She would try for chaser first. The only position available that she would not try out for would be beater. The position had never been one that she was comfortable to play, as it was far too aggressive. And she wasn't that strong.

Taking a deep breath, she took off when needed. Flying fast, she did her best to avoid getting hit by bludgers as she carried out the task at hand. Then she landed and prepared for the next task that she was to participate in.
