Action was hard to follow, missed lot of shots switching between 2 bodies. Next time I will only try 1 body.
No ball.

If you look back a few pages there was a guy did some awesome shots of kids playing football, he said he got down on his belly and it showed as they looked really big compared to what you've done here. I suggest you give that a go  I was shooting sitting on the ground. Fuji XT-1, 18-55mm
