    Nice stuff, you've captured the player's movements from every conceivable angle.

    Just a great series of action shots.

    I think the first one is special.

    Wonderful picture. Don't know what they're doing, but it's a good one.

    Well Donald this is called a Face Off. At the beginning of the match and after every goal the ball is placed between the sticks of the 2 opposing players. They then wrestle and jiggle whilst their team members rush in from the outer circle to hopefully gain possession of the ball when it is released. Here are a couple more photos to hopefully make things a little clearer and one at the end to show what the girls do for a face off - more face less off

    P.S. The girl with "Believe written on her arm was from Scotland.......and the other girl was Welsh......it was a hard fought battle for 5th and 6th place in the World Championships.....the standings at the end of the match was 6th place Scotland, 5th placed Wales.....Celtic Pride whatever the result.

    I never knew that was how the game was started. In the game I played, shinty, the game is started by a throw-up ... which used to, with boring regularity, cause much hilarity in the press.

    And that is a great picture of a face-off. Captures all the energy of the start of play.
