Did You Know?
Braces, or suspenders, were almost universally worn due to the high cut of men's trousers. Belts did not become common until the 1920s. — MJ

Eagles Taking Flight [Ravenclaw Tryouts 1894]
#1
Saturday, September 14th, afternoon — Quidditch Pitch
This was both his third and final year as Ravenclaws Quidditch Captain and Nico felt bittersweet about that. There were a lot of roles to fill so he hoped new talent would be showing up. "Good afternoon, everyone," Nico began when most had gathered up. "As you might have surmised, I am Ravenclaw's Quidditch Captain and my name is Nicodemus Dursley. Today we are looking to fill two chaser spots, a beater spot and we need a Keeper."

He waited for the group to take that in before continuing on. "You will be doing drills designed for the position you are trying out for and those of you trying out for multiple positions will have to do each one for the position you are trying out for in turns. I will blow my whistle to indicate when you should switch drills."

"Those of you trying out for chaser will fly in pairs, as fast as you can three times around the pitch while also passing a Quaffle to and from each other as many times as possible before ultimately attempting to get the Quaffle through one of the goal hoops at the opposite end of the pitch." He let the crowd take in the task before letting the Keepers know what they would be doing.

"Keepers, your job will be to attempt to block the aforementioned goal from going in as well as extra Quaffles that will be thrown into each of the other two hoops by the enchanted dummies over there." Near the opposite ends pitch floated two dummies with Quaffles.

"Beaters, I have set up ten targets at varying places around the pitch. But you will find that they will move. Your job is to hit as many as you can with the bludgers whilst also keeping bludgers from hitting the chaser and keeper hopefuls."

Well, that was that. "You may begin."

Please post once for each position you are trying out for. Make sure you have filled in the requisite form and have received a “like” from Kayte before posting! The deadline for all posts is 10:59pm EST on September 10th.

By posting in this thread, you agree to have your character present and whole regardless of what happens between the date of posting and the IC date listed.
