An Owl for Katrina McLevy by Boomer

This year, three of the four captains were graduating, so Coach Pierce's owl Boomer had a number of deliveries to make shortly before the end of the year. The owl was large and distinctive, so most students could recognized him, though he didn't often make personal deliveries to students who weren't Quidditch Captains. As such, the current recipient probably had a pretty good idea what the letter being delivered was about.

Captain Katrina McLevy, the letter attached to the owl's leg began.

Congratulations, you have been promoted to Quidditch Captain. Next year, you will be responsible for putting up sign-up sheets, holding try-outs, reserving the pitch for your team, and hosting practices throughout the year. You will, of course, have the help of an assistant captain. I recommend Thaddeus Pierce.

He was the next oldest after Miss McLevy, after all, and had been a member of the team since his first year, which gave him the edge over Miss Thornton. She always recommended the next oldest student with the most team experience unless there was a clear reason not to. Despite them being biological siblings, she doubted anyone would call her on nepotism.

If you would rather another to assist you, or don't feel you can perform these duties as Captain, please owl me so I can make sure the right people get their badges next year. You may tell your assistant of his or her promotion yourself. Congratulations and good luck.

Coach Amelia Pierce
