HEY GUYS. We're so close to the Ilvermorny game, are you STOKED?? I'm SUPER STOKED.

So we need to squeeze as MANY practices as POSSIBLE into the next two weeks to make sure we're SUPER READY. I want the PRIMARY FOCUS of our practices to be on fundamentals. Things like Chasers getting inside the GOAL ZONE and setting ourselves up for SURE SHOTS that we can hit in our SLEEP, and SPEED for the Seekers. I know it might be FUN to work on TRICKS and FANCY MOVES, especially if we want to be impressive, but we don't know how Ilvermorny PLAYS, so the way to win games is by having an almost IMPECCABLE handle on the BUILDING BLOCKS of Quidditch.

I have some ideas for STRATEGY that I want to go over in person at the upcoming practices, but if you have any SPECIFIC IDEAS or anything that you REALLY want to work on, this is a good time to tell me so I can work it in!! I want EVERYONE to feel involved in this team and in our upcoming VICTORY!!

If anyone is interested in doing POSITION-SPECIFIC practices I can work those in too! Especially since we all have a LOT of school and Quidditch and prom and things on our plates right now, it might be hard to fit everyone into EVERY practice we want to do, but if you want to do extra Chaser or Beater or anything practices?? I can DEFINITELY make time.

Meet me in the WEIGHT ROOM for our next practice so we can get SUPER TIRED before going and getting some REAL WORK done!

Okay, okay, okay! Awesome! [...] So, what are we supposed to do exactly?

Get ready for me to PASS things to you EVERY TIME I see you in the halls!!!

I'll be there for Anything!

I was going to Say. I have a Whole Nother set of Quidditch balls now??? So it would be harder with FOUR Quaffles or TWO SNITCHES, but we'd Definitely prove we know the Foundations if we did a scrimmage with Multiples. If you ever want to use them!! It's just an idea!!

DOUBLE QUIDDITCH!!!

I want to try to catch a Snitch in EACH hand.

We should play TRIPLE QUIDDITCH so you can catch one with your MOUTH too!!!

Just don't SWALLOW one!!

As good as Snitches don't taste, I'd do that for the Team.

OH MAN we could throw as MANY Quaffles as POSSIBLE at the Keepers for REFLEX work???

Exactly.
Ilvermorny might be good but they won't have Four Quaffles.

Unless they DO?? Does anyone have Ilvermorny INTEL??

CHASER PRACTICE is a good idea?? We should SCRAMBLE the set ups so we all know how each other play in case someone gets ANNIHILATED by a bludger on the pitch!!

IDEALLY we'd replace YOU with ESSIE and then me or Sy with TOBY but maybe their Beaters are SUPER ROUGH and will kill ALL OF US so we should practice ALL the set ups.
