Youth Wrestling

Our 6 year old decided he wanted to wrestle this year. These were shot this weekend at the tournament. They don't allow flash during the matches. These were show w/ MkIIn and 70-200 f/2.8 IS.

Nice photos. Youth tournaments are fun to watch and photograph. Did they give you a reason for no flash?

Probably the reason why flash is often frowned upon in gyms (other than properly strobed gyms)...potential distraction of athletes if using on camera flash.

They don't want the kids to be distracted by the flash. It's hard enough to get kids this age to stay focused as it is.

Thanks for the comments.
