Well, they are flying, so I'll give you the action part of the challenge but this isn't a sport even if they are a team.

This may get the brown ribbon. No team, no sports, no action.

What to say... Composition looks good to me, good lighting and color. Like the expressions caught. Above average, just not my favorite this round.

I scored this a little above average. I like the colors and the composition but I wish I could see the expression on the face of the main subjects. Back side is just not very interesting.

Point of view is very creative. Can't help but wonder if your player jumped from a ladder or trampoline because he is up so high! Composition looks good to me. Not crazy about the near silhoutte, wish it was a bit brighter. Above average score.

This is a good photo, but IMO it may have been better with a portrait crop. Just seems like too much empty space. Average score.

.........WOW! and an amazing save by the American goalkeeper

Boy, oh boy. How to rate this? Well, soccor is a team sport, and you did capture action (I can't wait to see how many tries it took to get this), and you obviously put a lot of effort into this. Composition and lighting all look professional, and I do like how the focus seems to be on the goalie. The "player" taking the shot looks like he is about to fall over though. I gave this an above average score, but it just wasn't one of my favorites this round. I guess it is just lacking in emotion, but I could see the Lego company using this for an ad.

Almost... got... him...

A bit more anticipation than action in this shot, but very nicely done. Good use of B&W. Above average score.
