While these are nicely exposed, sharp, etc. I think they lack in composition. The ball is the center of everyone's interest and needs to be at an important place in the picture and being active.

#3 is the best example, ball in the air, but squashed over on the edge, while there is lots of space all around the other sides.
Who cares about all that space?
Crop this to remove it and then there is much more impact because needless stuff and space that drains away energy is gone and there is tension between ball and both players.

Nice shots. Keep up the good work. I'll have to admit being from the U.S., I had first thought of the sport of "Hurling" (which happens after any keg party at most colleges here in the U.S.). Glad to see I was wrong. Wish the sport were more popular here......looks like fun!
