Your images would significantly improve with a longer lens and a larger aperture.  Generally sports action is best, (in my opinion), when you fill the frame with the action, no extraneous elements or distracting background detail, isolate the action.  I know you are new to photography and shooting long and wide open is difficult. But that is the beauty of photography.  There is always room for improvement ... always the challenge of combining vision, skill and experience into the exceptional photograph.  There is always a 'more successful' image to capture.


Are you saying I need to spend more $$$ on better equipment !!???     

YOU ARE EVIL !!!!      :lol:
