This may be a stretch for the challenge (no players and "Notion of"), but I had good seats for the Coca-Cola 600 this sunday and had to try to get some pics. Took a bunch, but my lens is just not fast enough, and I had too much beer to pan at 175 Mph... hence the pole placement down the middle of the car - Oh well it was fun.

This would be much better without the pole intersecting the subject. I won't quibble that sport car racing is a team sport, but those who showed pit crews came much closer to conveying that.
Interesting perspective - I would have preferred the shot if the poll on the fence wan't obscuring the car, and perhaps if the the focus was more on the car, and less on the fence.
The "caging" is extremely distracting. While the title is catchy, the photo doesn't really have any appeal. Less fencing, and more of the car itself would have resulted in a better photograph, in my opinon.
I'm wondering if it woud have been that much better if you shot it with the pole of the cage a bit to the left or the right. However, good idea for this challenge. 6
I know a lot of people would say this is not a team sport, but I think it is. The driver, the pit crew, the car engineers, etc... all part of the team. Nice capture, particularly the composition.
