I’ve shot over 100 games of British American football in the past 5-6 years. On many of them, certainly in the last 3 years, I have tried to take some shots on my
non-standard sports photography setup, i.e my compact camera or my iPhone.
This weekend saw the Hertfordshire Hurricanes begin their campaign for another National Championship, with an away game at Colchester, against the
Essex Blades.
I was invited over to Coldhams Common in Cambridge to shoot the varsity match between the Cambridge Pythons and the Oxford Lancers.
I went all the way down to Maidstone to shoot the Watford Cheetahs play the Maidstone Pumas.
I popped over to the Bedford International Athletics Stadium to shoot another home game for the Bedfordshire Blue Raiders.
This set is from 2011 and taken with an iPhone 3S. A selection of shots from the Watford Cheetahs before their game against the Kent Exiles.
In June 2011 I went down to Finsbury Park to shoot the London Blitz play in European competition against the Soledad Gold Diggers.
I popped up to Peterborough to shoot the Peterborough Saxons.
The Hertfordshire Hurricanes played the their great adversaries, the Birmingham Lions, at Hatfield this weekend in the semi finals of the BUAFL championship.
I drove over to Colchester to the grounds of the University of Essex’s Essex Blades American Football Club.
