Being new to the blog game and never have photoed socker I will post a photo I did Saturday night. Could not find a program so don't know who the players are. Will not happen again.
Overall, that's pretty good soccer for a first-timer.
Soccer and flash at night is a real tough combination.
I'm very tempted one of these days, as an experiment, to hire a couple of kids to hold strobes located at different places on the field just so I can get better light and not so much red eye at a night game.
If you want to help disguise that you're using flash, you want to try to shoot so the ground is not visible in the frame. This might mean shooting from a low angle or picking and choosing your shots so the action is waist-up. And you can also burn that foreground so the flash is not so distracting.
