Welcome to the group, enjoy and have fun
I love Davidson-my daughter graduated in 2006 (too bad Steph Curry has moved on...). They do have a lot of sports teams, especially for a small college, and pretty good school spirit.
Once they start playing games again, you'll have a lot to shoot. Good luck!
p.s. There has been a lot of sports references in the forum during the time I've participated-also a ton of birds on- the-fly references. I've found them very helpful.

Good Morning. I am fairly new to the Hedgehog and look forward to learning more about my passion for photography. Even after 10 years of a lot of photography I have much to learn. I retired this month for a 2nd time after 29 years in federal law enforcement and 15 years running a Forensic Academy for police training at a community college. I also taught college students police photography and after 20Gig or 30,000 photos as a "campus photographer" it is time to move on to one of my favorites, sports photography.
I recently purchased a Nikon Z 6 and a Nikon D500 and love both. I am using a 70-200mm and 100-400mm lens and enjoy both. I have researched for a 300mm prime lens but the F/2.8 lens are big bucks and looking for some advice on options. I have seen some comments on the Nikon 300mm F/4 -new PF model in the $2,000 range and wonder if anyone likes that for sports. I have done basketball, soccer, baseball, wrestling and volleyball but with retirement i may continue with other sports. I am located near Davidson College, Davidson NC so fortunate to be able to see different sports.
I look forward to learning more and viewing any advice from others.
