Welcome to the Gryffindor Locker Room. Along the wall, you see lockers to store your school robes during practice or matches. You see loads of magical pictures displaying past Gryffindor players. There is one of Agie Rae and Kerry Brandywine, and Torie Ledger holding the Quidditch Cup. Another one shows Alexis Chosen dodging a Bludger. You see Anna Greingoth performing an outstanding save to protect a Gryffindor lead. A picture of Brant DeVaice, a former captain, is displayed with all the Gryffindor captains from the past years.

Gryffindor colors of scarlet and gold are everywhere. Quidditch equipment and robes are here for the new team to wear and use. There is an entrance to the pitch, too.

Come in, take a seat, and tune up your broom before going to practice or a game.

The locker room and practice pitch is the place where Gryffindor Captain Simon Bennett will hold practices and post announcements. It is not a place for you to RP, unless your captain says that it's okay to RP getting ready for a game or when a game is over.

OOC-only comments are not allowed in this thread. If you have a question/comment, please send the person a PM.
