I like shooting youth football. They let me on the field here at home and I get some really great shots

It must have been one heck of a collision. 7D gripped / Rebel XS / 70-200 f/2.8 L IS / 50mm f/1.4 / and some other stuff

But for football I'm behind a rope, 10 to 12 feet from the sideline, behind the coaches, kids on the sideline, refs and team moms to get my shots, so when I get a good one after fighting all that, I'm happy! The best time is when the kids get down toward the goal line. Coaches and kids on the sideline aren't allowed past the 20 yard markers. Now I just have the refs and other parents to battle. ![]() I know what you mean. I have only shot high school football, but at the home games they are very strict about getting on the field. shooting from the stands or behind the fence, which was about 20' from the sideline sucked. I ended up signing up with a local website, Varsitypix.com, to become an official team photographer. Access to the field was granted and it is definately the best place to be for pics. It is also awesome to hear the coaches yelling and everything else that happens on the sidelines. 7D gripped / Rebel XS / 70-200 f/2.8 L IS / 50mm f/1.4 / and some other stuff

Right now I'm enjoying the access that I do have at my kids games. My daughter plays soccer and I can wander anywhere I please on those fields. Chas Gordon

The kid had a great pre-season, I thought for sure that running back would make the team...he did, Carolina's team
