The colors could be brought out a little, but I really like the composition with the umbrella.

This is cute, nice DOF with getting the umbrella in focus as well as the players. I like how you frame the game with the umbrella. I would have liked to have seen your shutter speed just a bit higher maybe, because the main boy doesn't look to be in focus, but I'm guessing he's just blurry. I think you could have cropped out the two playerss on the left and still had the same effect. Tighter is often better in sports shots.

What a familiar view that will be for me in a few years time! Nice idea and execution, which captures the essence of the game and situation very well. It's a bit wonky though so I would have straightened it up along the line of filed/horizon.

Nice staging. A good cadidate for B&W. would put the umbrella and the lawn in the same tonal range. this would improve the balance of the composition. Would also add a little extra mood in this fine rainy day image.

Lordy! This should have been a nostalgia entry. I remember them all too well. Nicely done. I just wish the kicker was more in focus.

The umbrella really enhances the feel of the shot and hides a probably white sky too very effectively. The horizon tilt is a bit annoying/ disconcerting though. Good shot. A faster shutter speed would have crisped things up a bit, but I guess the light was pretty dim with the weather
