Nice sharp images. In my opinion, #4 doesn't tell me anything and #5 needs a tighter crop.

This is a great start to sport photography for your first outing. Two things I would suggest. First is get down on the floor to shoot and shoot up at the players. This make the player look bigger and more intense. Most of these look like they are shot from the stands. Second is shoot tighter and crop even tighter on the action. On your fifth shot there is no reason to see any of the players except the shooter and the defender #12. Way to much floor showing under the players. Agian an awesome start, great exposure, sharpness etc.
