It may be an assistant to you, but is not portrayed that way to me. Sorry.

The title says one thing, the bg says another. Confusing.

this is a nice shot. the thing is in sports pix, if you have ever noticed on the sidelines, the cameramen with those huge, bulky lenses.

Nothing is absolute, rules are there to be broken, but normally in sports photography, the action comes to the frame of the camera, and not the other way around.

This is too busy. It reminds me of a parental picture of the sons team in action. A pro sports photog waits for the action to come to them. They find a bg that is good (ie, no lines, no advertising, no people if possible) and just wait. They usually have two or three cameras with them with differant focal lengths, and even an assistant.

If done again, try to get closer, make sure to include facial expressions, all limbs if possible, the ball, action, and the opposing team if possible.
