Thanks for adding a forum for sports photography. Here's a couple of shots taken a week or so ago at a local Rugby football match. Who needs pads and helmets?

Great sport!!
Nice shots Kent

Looks like it was bright mid-day Sun. They are a touch on the bright side, IMO. But still nice captures

I seldom watched rugby, until my daughter started playing it in college. She played all 4 years (her BF still plays). I've been to quite a few matches and have really enjoyed them. It's kind of a cool game to watch. Lots of action and running and hitting. It's such a rough sport it makes American Football look like ice dancing....lol

Thanks for sharing and I'll be looking for more,
Steve

here is one reason why they should wear pads & helmets, look at the state of his ears...Tough game

Nice shot too

The ground looks pretty hard

Great use of wide angle in that first pic.

Looks like he's coming out of the screen at me.
