    Took a few pics at a recent U8 Football Blitz in my football club. I used the kit lense that came with my camera as I havent got my zoom lense yet. For a 1st attempt, I dont think they are the worst.

    Try to get down a bit lower, so that you get a better angle on the players.
    Crop out the large areas of grass & any "busy" backgrounds, such as the houses in the last one.

    Thanks for the comments. I see what you mean by getting down lower. Never thought of that while taking the photos and also on the cropping. I didnt crop too much as there wasnt much left of the picture due to not having a zoom lense.

    Also get you're shutter speed up as there is some blurring on feet and ball, but very good otherwise

    Cheers for that, had the shutter speed at 1/400. Thought that would of been enough.

    Good work. You will have loads of oppertunities at juvenile games. Get a little lower I like #2 and 4. Some good G.A.A club websites around where you will get ideas. www.maurs.ie or have a look at OnLooker photos on St. Brigits web site. Also just look at what the experts like City-exile and these lads and lassies post here. Up the Maurs:):)
