Bookworm:
"IIRC (apologies for not checking - the book is *missing* in my 
daughter's room) when Oliver introduced Katie to Harry, Oliver said 
that Katie had been on the 'reserve' team the year before, so she 
was new to the 'varsity' team the same year Harry was.  That's the 
only mention of the reserve team I remember, so what exactly that 
means is unclear."

DuffyPoo:
While calling the Quidditch match in PS, Lee Jordan said, "And she's really belting along up there, a neat pass to Alicia Spinnet, a good find of Oliver Wood's, last year only a reserve..." but I don't see that Katie has been introduced, anywhere, as being on the reserve team.  However, she is a chaser in HP's second year, and though we don't see it, they probably had try outs at some point as they did in OotP.  Since Ginny doesn't mention that Katie is leaving, only Alicia and Angelina, Katie must be a year older that HP but a year younger than Alicia and Angela which, in HPB will make Katie a 7th year, and HP 6th.  Isn't this right?  It's early and my math skills have never been that great.
