Quidditch Pitch

Something you had enjoyed to watch was quidditch, You heard that the Gryffindor team was down on the field practicing so you wanted to go and see for yourself. When you got down to the oval shaped pitch sure enough the Gryffindor team was there practicing, You noticed Fred and George who seemed to have noticed you.

"Hey Marvolo." They said simultaneously.

"Hello Fred, George. I just came down to see what's going on down here, What Positions do you play?" You replied

"Were, Beaters." They said again simultaneously. "Do you want you hop on a Broom?" Asked Fred

"Sure!" You said with an excited tone. I'm not going to let this opportunity down. You knew all about Quidditch, the positions: Three Chasers, two Beaters, one Keeper, and one Seeker. The balls used in the game a Quaffle, two Bludgers, and a Golden Snitch. The three hoops for Chasers to score in and keeper to guard.

You hopped on the spare broom and started to gain yourself some altitude, you slipped a little bit once you stopped in the air, once you adjusted your self you moved your self forward quite fast, You wanted to adjust yourself if you were going to play. You moved straight toward the huge tower stand and quickly turned drifting in front of the tower.

"Nice one Gaunt your a natural." Shouted George, just hearing that from someone who plays for the school team was amazing to hear. You noticed Fred and George up to something.

"Hey, Catch." they said, Throwing a ball straight at your face, You swiftly moved your hands in front of your face catching the Quaffle that Fred at thrown at you, out of instinct you swiftly moved towards the hoops where the Wood the Keeper was in front of the middle hoop facing you. You had an idea with the Quaffle in hand you swiftly moved your arm in a throwing motion towards the bottom left hoop releasing the Quaffle momentarily, Wood quickly moved to left hoop, but you still had the ball you had only moved your arm fast tricking Wood into thinking you had fully released the Quaffle but you had only released it in front of you, You hastily hurled the Quaffle at the centre hoop and getting it through.

"Well done, That was Impressive." Wood said sounding blown away that he had been completely tricked by a first year.

"An old throwing trick, I'm surprised it worked." You said, you were surprised that you had completely fooled him.

"Lets go again." He said throwing the Quaffle at you

After the Quaffle landed in your hands perfectly you instantly took off turning round in a large semi circle flight heading straight towards Wood at an Insane speed before throwing the Quaffle straight through one of the hoops before Wood got there, This continued, Three, Four, Five, Six, Seven, Eight and Nine until you were coming on your final turn heading for the hoops you through it but Wood just managed to hit it away with the back of his broom, Nine out of ten wasn't that bad.

"Say... Gaunt would you be interested in being a Chaser for the Gryffindor Quidditch team, since were in need of one and the fact you are really talented you would be a great addition?" Wood offered one of his eyebrows rose up in an inquisitive way.

"Yes, I would love to." You didn't know if what you had heard was real. "Wait, Are you serious?"

"Yes." Wood said just a blank calm tone. You still didn't fully believe what you had heard.

While leaving the pitch you saw a girl talking to Wood, you overheard the conversation.

"Sorry Katie, The position has just been filled and training is over." Wood said "Maybe you can try out for seeker instead when the Quidditch trials start." Wood reasured Katie.
