Judges Comments
1. In your face, blood, braces, brawn, bruises catapulted this to first place. 2. Nice action, perfectly clean, nice backlight, charming and cute. 3. Nice peak action, decisive moment, clean background, maybe crop in on the player on the left a little to put the point of focus on the player fumbling.
