In general ...

Level the horizon. Background fence poles work great.
Crop tighter around the action.
Shoot from a lower angle. Makes for "bigger than life" shots. Those three-legged fold-up golf chairs are nice.
Dial up the shutter speed. Too much blur in the action shots, in my opinion.
Butt shots are rarely compelling. Try shooting from the end of the pitch by the goal to get head-on action.

Cheers.

thanks ronnie, i agree with everything you said as those photos were taken pretty early in the season before i got yelled at for standing during the games haha. more than a few of those were taken from the endline and the others were at the last 1/4 of the field.
