яεgrετ┃яσι ηστнιηg ♦ ғεαя┃яσι ησ σηε ♦ ταkε prιdε ιη┃яσι εvεяyτнιηgColton had to laugh at himself for getting blocked twice in a row by an inexperienced first year, but then he checked himself when he realized that perhaps it wasn't his lack of skill that allowed Raiden to catch the quaffle both times.
With a more serious smile, Colton caught the ball before blowing his whistle, the squeaking sound echoing repeatedly across the field. "Alright everyone, on the ground, please!" he called professionally, already diving towards the autumn grass himself.
With a quiet thump he landed on the ground next to Jayden, laid his broomstick next to his feet, and reached for the clipboard once more. He took note of Jayden's notes, referring to his a couple of times as well before nodding his head in confidence and flipping to a new sheet of paper that contained a partially empty roster. In a few moment's time he had the empty spaces filled in with only vaguely familiar names that he looked forward to getting accustomed to over the following year.
"Okay, listen up! I know the team roster is traditionally posted the following week after some time and thought goes in to the decision-making process, but I am more than confident in who I want on my team." Colton spoke in a quick, but clear voice, certainty in his decision radiating from him like pure energy. "As I mentioned earlier, we were looking to fill the positions of beater, keeper, and seeker. Gryffindor, your new beater and my new game partner is Hannah Palidonia!" he announced proudly, holding his clipboard beneath his arm to encourage his teammates to clap for her.
"Congratulations, Hannah," he told her, handing her both a practice jersey and game uniform, along with a set of equipment for her new position. "Now, I'd also like to welcome to our team Gryffindor's newest—and soon to be best—keeper, Raiden Oakwood! Congratulations!" He followed the same process he had with Hannah, handing the new keeper her respective equipment and shaking her hand.
"And finally, it is my pleasure to name Samuel Meridith—who has already begun to prove himself worthy of the job—as Gryffindor's new seeker! May he win us many games to come!" Along with his equipment and uniform, Colton handed the boy the same snitch he had caught earlier, and whispered, "Welcome to the team, kid."
The captain pinned the official roster onto the outside of the locker room and turned to face the group of students. "For those of you who did not make the team, I can only remind you that it doesn't mean you're not all great players. Additionally, I'd like to stress the importance of practice, and Hogwarts' flying and advanced flying classes are a great start. I encourage all of you to come back for next year's try-outs with the same optimism, and I look forward to seeing all of you in the stands at our first game of the year against Hufflepuff next week!" With a quiet sigh and a satisfied smile, Colt leaned over and began to pick up the equipment he had lugged onto the field.
"That's it for today. I expect my team here in the morning bright and early for our first practice. And, please be suited up before I get here. We've got a lot of ground to cover before our match against Hufflepuff, and I don't want to give them any reason to come out on top."
With that, Colton dropped his head back to the ground and continued to pack up all of the supplies, his hearty grin never fading as he tried to imagine how well his new team would match up against their rivals.

яεgrετ┃яσι ηστнιηg ♦ ғεαя┃яσι ησ σηε ♦ ταkε prιdε ιη┃яσι εvεяyτнιηgIn a similar fashion—and in possession of the same load—as he had during try-outs, Colton carried himself onto the field, a small smile forming at the edges of his lips as he realized this would be his first real practice as captain of the Gryffindor Quidditch Team.
Without making a sound, the boy lowered the equipment onto the ground and situated the barrel of used brooms in the center of the field. Once everything was in place, he finally made eye contact with his new team. "Welcome to practice everyone. I hope you all are well-rested and prepared for a very thorough practice. We have precious little time before our match against Hufflepuff." Colton opened up the trunk of balls as he spoke. He unleashed the snitch, tossed the quaffle to Jayden, and petted the chained bludger in its fight to be unleashed.
"I would like to start with a little team bonding by having everyone introduce themselves. After you have told everyone your name, position, and what you most want to accomplish throughout this quidditch season in regards to your respective position, go ahead and grab a broom, but stay on the ground until everyone has finished. Once we are all acquainted, I'll give you two minutes to warm up with a few quick laps around the pitch, and then I'd like to jump directly into a scrimmage game to ensure that we can all work as a team," he instructed loudly, making sure to speak loud enough so that everyone could hear.
With a small nod of his head, Colt took a step back and properly introduced himself. "I'm Colton Raines, Gryffindor quidditch captain and beater, and my goal for this season is to ensure that none of my teammates are injured by a bludger—which means I'll need all of my players not to be afraid to call for help if they find themselves in need." As he finished, the captain reached down for his broom and leaned on the handle. "Alright, next?" he called, allowing anyone who wanted to speak up to do so in hopes of getting the introductions rolling.[[OOC: This practice will run through Friday (8/24) as "one" practice. Their first game is this Saturday (8/25), which we'll pretend is the "next day" after this practice, for RP purposes.]]нσω dσ yσu ғιgнτ α ωαя ғяσм вστн sιdεs┃ωнεn σηℓy σηε cαη ωιη?
