a great take on sports photography- you have captured the feline grace of womens' sports-spontaneous jazz hands.

The shot itself had too much noise, but I like the expressiion that you captured. She seems very confident, where as the pirate girl looks defeated.

I really like the action, the picture has a lot of grain that is distracting and the odd color artifact is a bit distracting.

I think a ball or similar in the frame would help a lot, without one for reference the scene's a little confused I feel. I also accept that you have to work within the limitations of your equipment, but the grain is quite distracting, perhaps more could be done to remove it in post?

I like the way the direction of her eyes lead you off the shot, wondering weather the shot made it.
