Visited the grandkids in Wheatland, WY, and watched our 6yr old grandson wrestle in the 39 lb weight class. These kids were so small to quite large, but full of energy and lots of attitude/tears. The age limits were 3yrs to 13yrs. There were 7 towns represented and lots of noise. Quite a few girls participated. He placed 4th and was out of the metal round which brought more tears (losing is just horrible). Here are some photos of the action.
Lots of photo noise due to the high ISO and major cropping. No flashes were allowed on the floor level due to distraction. My first try at this kind of photography and it is not easy to get good action shots. Probably 15 clicks before one keeper. My hat is off to you sports shooters. Tough assignment.
These are very nice, Bill
As a former HS wrestling coach I really enjoyed your PICS. Wrestling is a special sport, it is good to start them off young.
