Looking at her feet she tried to figure out how she was going to pass a ball without picking it up. Then it hit her, "Oh, you mean we kick the ball to the other players on our team?" All of a sudden this game wasn't sounding so easy anymore but she wasn't going to let him know that. "So how about if we practice kicking, or do I need to know anything else right now? I have a feeling I am going to need a lot of practice with this." Looking at the ball she felt a little nervous about kicking it. What if she kicked it and ended up falling on her bum. That would not be good.
Evan nodded with a sly smile. That was what made football so awesome--you had to have a perfect balance and talent. And if he didn't have magical talent--wait, Marie had finally figured it out. He nodded again. She really was clever. It had taken him a few months and games to fully understand Quidditch, like it made him any good. It was still the boring game.
Did she have anything to know?
"Just try not to tackle so hard. It can lead to injury." She didn't seem like she could even stand on her feet while running with ball, but just in case she turned out to be a girl Messi. He got up.
"Nao, if you want to give a low pass, which is ideal for short distances and clear areas, you hit with inside of your foot." he explained while hitting the ball a little to show.
"This passing style is easy and effective." He showed for a while more, then ran back with the ball to get away a little. Saying
"Ready," he threw the ball softly towards Marie with inside of his left foot. That was an easy one, it looked to be going right in front of her right foot.
