Phin was nervous, of course, but he at least felt better about his odds with so many spots open. He was also secretly glad to be trying out for Ravenclaw, where if he made it, no one could claim it was through nepotism. Or if he didn't make it, that he was so bad even nepotism couldn't save him. That might actually be worse.

Heading up into the air for chaser first, Phin set about passing the quaffle and trying to score, hoping that, if nothing else, he didn't make a fool of himself.
