1 - DMC - No discernible creativity or effort here for the challenge. Nothing 'sporty' about this at all. It is a game and the beer is irrelevant.

Sports? Nice shot, but I can't see any relationship between the beer, the chess or the sports theme.

Clever idea, but can't see the significance of the beer bottle...

i couldnt even tell it was chess till i looked around which is a stretch of the challenge but i dont care, the beer is out of place and is without a doubt the center of this photo, the chess is secondary.

Points off for no action, extra points for beer. Nice shot, just not a sport action shot.

little over exposed on the bottle, but nice reflection on the board. i think you missed the part of the definition about 'anything with beer is sport'...it's actually anything with beer AND BLOOD--if you had put some blood on the board, i'm sure this would have scored a lot higher. better luck next time!

I know chess is a sport... but drunken chess??? hmmmm could be fun.... As for the pic, the glare on the bottle is distracting and the overall lighting is way off. You might want to try a different angle on the ches board as well.
