East – April 2026 – Sports Action

Judges Comments

First Place: “Jump” stood out to us because of the facial expression and the way you can feel movement from his hair and the sand. Second Place: Having the ball in the glove of the sharp image in “Wells Safe” made this photo a winner. Good job capturing this key moment of play. Third Place: “Collision” is a nice action moment where the players have good expressions and the ball can clearly be seen floating in between the sticks. Alternate: We liked how both players were frozen in the air in “Hurdle.” And good job keeping the top of the helmet in the frame.
