When not in use for games, the Quidditch Pitch is open for students to practice their Quidditch skills before attending team tryouts, and it's also open for students to practice their flying skills (make sure you get a broom from the Broomshed!)

Once the Quidditch season officially begins, team captains can 'book the field' with Professor Vindictus for practice and non-team members can watch practices occur. When practices aren't in session, the pitch is open for flying practice.

Penny blushed a little..."I've been practising really hard, because I really want to catch up to everyone else... almost all the people i've talked with have been flying for like years..."

"Wow..your dad was an international seeker !!!!!.... very cool.." Penny was uber impressed by this information - she had thought Oakey was a nice guy, this new information made him "cool"...

"I'm gonna be trying out for Chaser or Seeker...although I may just try out for all the positions - i'm not fussy - I just want to be on the team "

Jonathan had nothing else to do today so he went t the Quidditch pitch and practice. With the upcoming Quidditch tryouts he needed to be prepared if he wants to make it in the team.

Upon reaching the place a lot of people were practicing for awhile. Sigh.

He rode his broomstick and kicked the ground. He swiftly went high up into the sky. Chaser. He always wanted to become a chaser. Beater as well. Although, it might be a little dangerous but the rush feeling would really be awesome for one. Keeper would be nice but it's not his forte though.

Aim for chaser. Always aim for chaser. Hopefully he makes it into the Slytherin teams.

Rose walked onto the Quidditch pitch looking around... then seeing Penny sitting up in the stands talking to an older girl and a boy ... making her way over she smiled..
"Hi Penny, are you practicing or watching?"

taking the seat next to her, leaning the school Shooting Star against her knee..

Penny saw Rose approach and smiled on seeing her oldest friend...She'd known Rose since they were both seven, and the first person she told after receiving her Hogwarts letter..

"Hey Rose, we just watching for now... I think there are try-outs here in a few minutes... Were you thinking of flying?", having seen the old school broom in Roses hand..

Presley Black · 05-19-2011, 09:54 PM

Presley skipped out onto the practice pitch for her morning run. My goal for today is 25 laps, no stopping she thought to herself. She always set a goal before a run, otherwise she wasn't sure if she would stop. She took off, jogging around the outside edge of the pitch. She ran for a loooooooong time before realizing she probably needed water.

Holmesian Feline · 05-20-2011, 09:03 PM

Knowing both his cousin and Kyle were trying out for Quidditch, Simon had decided to try and make the tryouts himself to watch. Unfortunately he had missed the first part with Mina but he made his way up the stands for the second session where both girls were going to be partcipating. Nothing like a little friendly support though he tried to stay out of too much notice not wanting to distract anyone. The captain finally taking a seat once he was satisfied with his location.

Walrus · 05-21-2011, 01:18 AM

Jacob walked onto the edge of the pitch. It was like Christmas. Little Teeny Firsties, TRYING to ride brooms. Oh. The Excitement... The Humor... The Injuries!

YES! Injuries, he could just smell it! The Pain of little tiny first years.

The Sweet Stench of Failure. It just filled the air.

Jacob quickly took out his wand (and now that he was able to conjure a lawn chair without hundreds of tries.) Swished it, nothing.

Jacob Grumbled slightly, and gave another swish of the wand. This time a simple lawn chair formed. Well finally.

Jacob sat down, with his bar of chocolate and watched as students began to file into the pitch.

Holmesian Feline · 05-21-2011, 01:24 AM

Simon made his way to the practice pitch as the begining flying lessons were about to start, wanting to check things out after it had proven to be a good idea last term. Spotting another form already there seated on the sidelines he couldn't help but chuckle almost to himself as it seemed he and Jacob always seemed to have the same ideas

"Crash into anyone lately?" he asked as in half-jest as he neared the Ravenclaw captain. He figured a little levity might help break whatever drama might still exist from their last meeting.

Rosa Chispa Princessa · 05-21-2011, 01:37 AM

A little practice never hurt anyone. Thus even though she really hada lot to get done forclasses she had tomakesometime for fun.

Presley Black · 05-21-2011, 01:53 AM

Presley finished her run, and drank some water as she waited for William to come help her with her Quidditch skills.

Jacob watched as Vindictus started the lesson.

Oh lookit. Simon. Jacob smiled at the Gryffindor lion. No hard feelings on the ground... but it the air, the boy was going to pay. "Other than the one I tried to feed to the snargaluff?... Nope." he said, and placed his fedora on top of his head tipping it forward slightly.

"Want some?" he asked, Offering the bar of chocolate to the boy.

"I say atleast one is gonna get hurt by their brooms.... probably that one and maybe that one." he pointed out a slytherin and a Ravenclaw who he didn't know.

Holmesian Feline · 05-21-2011, 03:19 AM

Simon watched as the rest of the students appeared and Vindictus began class, noticing a few familiar faces. A part of him hoping there was no repeat of last year. Hearing Jacob's answer, he couldn't help but raise and eyebrow at the comment about the deadly plant and what sounded like a fellow student, turning to his fellow captain before shaking it off. He certainly was an odd duck.

"Sure," he said accepting the offered bar of chocolate and breaking off a piece before handing it back. "Thanks," he added quietly before turning back to watch the attempts at calling the brooms. "Yeah usually is always one or two," Simon replied in agreement since it was true... brooms and flying was always tricky starting out. He just hoped none of his house was seriously hurt...or anyone else for that matter. Bruises and such were ok though.

PhoenixRising · 05-21-2011, 04:32 AM

So the best way for Josephina to overcome her fear of flying and heights was to be close to the source, right? Maybe. Nonetheless, the Arithmancy professor made her way out to the edge of the pitch to watch Max teach the next batch of young first years and new flyers.

Flashback to 19 years ago and she realized some of those youngsters out there were her; some would make it in flying and others would never quite get the hang of it. Even seven years into flying lessons.

But now, twelve years after leaving all that behind, Josephina was going to make one last attempt at learning the art of flying. Actually it wasn't the art that bothered her; no, she understood the theory behind it VERY well. It was the height. Spotting two of her students - quidditch captains - nearby, Fina plopped down on the grass nearby, adjusting her sunglasses on her face.

"Is it very hard? Being up high and all?" She asked nonchalantly to either Simon or Jacob, staring out at the kids.

Oakey walked to pitch hoping to find Isobel, or Penny or anyone else. He was relieved to be out of the Hospital Wing and to get back to his daily routine.

When he saw him! It was that crazy Ravenclaw boy. Quick duck and cover, this was an awful idea to come here.

Oakey wasn't about to have repeat performance of what happened at the Whomping Willow. He hesitantly jumped behind some brush. Leave gotta leave

He never felt so scared to be in the place he loved so much.

Jacob watched as the kids struggled to get their brooms up, why? Jacob had gotten it his first time... at least. Thats what he thought... he kinda pushed that First year out of his mind. No one really cared about it... especially Jacob.

"Is it just me or are the broom getting more and more reluctant?" he asked his fellow captain. "I don't remember having this much trouble, do you?" maybe vindictus should think about getting new brooms.

Jacob simply smiled at the failure, and struggle of the little kids...... and not so little kids. Was that Finn? What would the Pro people think when they found out that Finn, who wanted to be on their team, couldn't even call up his broom.

Jacob looked around to see professor Hadley standing there. Wait... she'd never been on a broom? That couldn't be what she was suggesting... could it?

Nah. That would just be absurd.

But he'd play along. "Well it depends on the person. I never really had trouble... but for some one like..." Jacob looked over the students. That one... the one who'd just gotten smacked with the broom. "That person, might have a harder time getting used to it." not that they would have a harder time... they were just the first person Jacob saw.

Isobel wandered down to the pitch. She looked around, the only people she could really see were the Ravenclaw and Gryffindor captains, and the Arithmancy professor. Hm, what was she doing here? Oh well. Then Isobel saw a flash of yellow in a bush. With a curious look in her eyes she wandered over to it and saw...Oakey! "Um, Oakey, what are you doing?"

Shhhhhh! Oakey whispered intensely. Then without speaking a word he poked his hand out of the bush pointing it to the captains and professor. He's right there! He continued to whisper.

I wanted to check out the other teams tryouts but that fell through the moment I stepped ten feet away from him. Oakey's hand that was out of the bush was shaking but still pointing in their direction.

Simon shrugged at the question watching the class and their various woes with the brooms. "Could be just the fact they haven't really be used all summer," he mused, his mind comparing jerked and slow reactions to muscles out of use. The captain wincing as Kurumi momentarily lost control of hers before getting it to stop before hitting Vindictus and smiling with a chuckle as Selina got it on her first try.

"Its all a matter of perspective," he answered Professor Hadley turning to look at her as he spoke, the seventh year nodding in agreement at JAcob's own answer. "And experience. It can be absolutely terrorising at first but once you get up there for a bit a few times and get used to it its a great feeling." Not that he was saying it had ever scared him...nuh uh.

Simon briefly caught sight of the Hufflepuff captain coming to the pitch and smiled waving her over before she seemed to get distracted by something. No reason why the captains couldn't all watch though Aaron was nowhere to be seen at the moment.

Isobel looked where he was pointing and saw the Ravenclaw captain. The one who had tried to feed Oakey to a plant. Well, now she could see why he was trying to hide. "There's a professor standing next to him," she pointed out. "He won't hurt you. Come out of there and watch with me." She could protect him from the mean captain.

She saw another captain, not the mean one, wave her over. He must be the Gryffindor captain. She motioned for Oakey to come with her and walked over there. The other captain wouldn't try to feed him to a plant with all the other important people around. Well, if it was just her he might, because she was only fourteen. "Hello," she said shyly.

Isobel was right the Crazy Ravenclaw couldn't do much when there was a professor right next to him.

If you say so Oakey nervously stepped out from the bush he was perfectly safe in. Keeping right behind Isobel as she made her way to the other captains and Professor Hadley.

Penny had wandered down to the pitch after finishing dinner, thought she might watch the first flying lessons take place...

When she reached the edge of the pitch, she looked around, seeing the students in the middle with Vindictus, they were attempting to get the brooms up !!

Then she spotted a few people that she knew sitting on the sidelines on the grass-- Professor Hadley, Isobel and Oakey... with a smile she walked around the pitch to join them...looking closer at the little group, she saw the ravenclaw that had been trying to feed Oakey the a Snargaluff plant..

"ohh, this isn't good", she thought...Penny hadn't seen the boy since the incident a few nights ago.... reaching the group, Penny smiled at Oakey and Isobel...

"Hi guys, mind if I join you?"..then to the professor "Good evening Professor"

Uncle Moose · 05-21-2011, 09:53 PM

Oakey turned his head quickly and saw Penny rushing over to them. Hi Penny Oakey said still sounding really nervous. H-Hello to you t-too Professor.

Oakey then trained his eyes on the two boys. The one standing up must've been the Gryffindor Captain. N-Nice to me-meet you Oakey held his hand out to him. I-I'm Oakey

He looked down at the Ravenclaw Captain, a single droplet of sweat formed on his forehead. The Ravenclaw hadn't noticed him yet, he was was to busy viewing the students on their brooms in Vindictus' flying class. Oakey still had a chance to run before he was fed to a plant again.

"Hello," he greeted as the lady captain of their group came back with a fellow Hufflepuff he hadn't noticed before. "Sure you may," Simon answered with a smile before turning to Oakey as he introduced himself. "Nice to meet you Oakey...I'm Simon," he greeted back shaking the younger boys hand.

"Captains! Finn!" he called out. "Over here, now! And make sure you have a broom!"

All of sudden he heard the familiar ring of Vindictus' voice summoning over, nodding to show he understood. "Guess we're being summoned," he mused to his fellow captains. "Have fun watching," he added to Professor Hadley and the students before making his way towards the gathered class.

littledhampir · 05-21-2011, 10:23 PM

Isobel looked toward Professor Vindictus when he called the captains over. "Well I guess I'll see you later Oakey, and Penny." Now the mean captain was leaving too, so he couldn't feed Oakey to a plant. She waved and gave them a smile before following the Gryffindor captain, Simon, over to the flying class.

There weren't many people here, which made it more tolerable for him to practice his flying. Another gust of wind blew past him, chilling him more. The Nimbus Two Thousand and One was slung on his shoulder. Wishing he had worn more layers, he pulled out his wand with his free hand and summoned a scarf of blue and silver; Ravenclaw colors. He slackened his grip on the broom, allowing it to slide down his arm and land softly on the plush grass. Wrapping his scarf around his face and neck, he held his hand over the idle broom.
"Up," he muttered. The broom flew into his hand. Roderigo never really understood why it was so fascinating to see the broom zip into his hand, or anyone's for that matter. Shrugging at his muse, he mounted the broom, kicked off hard. He didn't allow himself to fly terribly high. Only a few feet, probably the height of an average seventh year. His eyes fluttered to the face of his watch; he was expecting his comrade, Theodore Dumble, to be arriving soon. While he waited, he lackadaisically flew around at a low height.

She mounted her broom and rose up skyward. There all around was the aireal view of Hogwarts that she missed for nearly a year. She didn't do much flying last term, but she had missed it since then. Doing a few laps around the pitch, she stopped in a small corner and looked and at the view and everyone there enjoying themselves. Here was the perfect place to think.

He rode his broomstick and kicked the ground. He swiftly went high up into the sky. Chaser. He always wanted to become a chaser. Beater as well. Although, it might be a little dangerous but the rush feeling would really be awesome for one. Keeper would be nice but it's not his forte though.

Aim for chaser. Always aim for chaser. Hopefully he makes it into the Slytherin teams.

Professor Vindictus arrived at the base of the Stands and pulled out his wand. He gave it a few flicks and four security orbs flew towards him. They stopped two feet away from him and hovered in the air, all of them blinking red. He put his wand away and took the first one in his hand. Vindictus studied it carefully for a few minutes before checking the next one.

For twenty minutes, he stood there examining the images caught on the magical orbs. Seven students ignored his patronus message regarding usage of the Practice Pitch during tryouts - no wonder a few of the captains owled him while he was away.

He took out his wand once more and watched as the orbs zoomed back to their hiding places. Then he pointed it directly at the Great Hall and gave his wand a flick. Those who ignored his message just lost 5 points each.

Now that he was finished, Vindictus turned his attention back to the lesson and looked up at the students flying overhead. With a frown, he started walking towards the center of the pitch.
