Last week I spent two days shooting the UIL State Soccer Tournament in Georgetown for 1st Photo Texas.
I was only there through the semi-finals, so I didn’t get to see the last day of competition. There was still plenty of action, and not just from the players. On Friday, storms caused an hour and a half game delay, but after the rain blew through, it was back to soccer.
These athletes weren’t going to let go of their chance at a state championship. They elbowed, kicked, pushed and kneed their way through the games. Who said soccer isn’t a full contact sport?
Here are some of my favorite action shots from semi-finals.
Emotions always run high during these tournaments, no matter the sport. So here are a few of my favorite reaction shots.
I wish I could’ve seen the championship games and been witness to the madness that is always expected during those games, but after two days of soccer in the heat, rain, wind and sun, I was ready for a break. Maybe next time!
