A bit more contrast would have helped

Interesting image, but there doesnt seem to be a subject which draws my attention and I find myself looking around too much.

Nice one.. i personally feel it needs more contrast to bring out the blue color of the sky.

Yes, sure would see this in the papers. Maybe more contrast and more focus.

your player is slightly out of focus - drops picture to a 5

I take a lot of BB pictures as my kid plays as well so ... This shot would not make my keeper file unless it was the only capture I could muster.
Why? well focus the subject is not sharp a faster shutter speed was needed or a slower one for a motion blur. Lighting looks like it was in a good area but your position captures the shadow part of it. Background is more in focus than the subject. Your auto focus cheated you from a nice shot.
If this is your child? If so take heart in that when I posted a BB picture of my kid in a challenge it was one of my lowest scores ever. But I did not care I was still proud.
I scored you a 5.
Good Luck

Cheers

Not bad, but could have improved by having the action captured a bit earlier (yeah, I know, that's the difficult part :-), and a better focus (the fence is in focus instead of the kid).
