Anyone have any advice on best angles for shooting lacrosse? I took some shots at my son's club lacrosse tournament. Perhaps I should spend more time behind the net?

These are great!
I think I remember running into you at that same tournament! Great shots!
Hey, Paul
I think the best angles are were the players are more or less facing you, and where you are lower to the ground. Here's some random samples from Google.

In addition, some settings suggestions: I'd shoot at the lowest aperture at full zoom as much as possible so you can separate (blur) the background more. Currently, looks like you're using a 100-400mm f4.5 - 5.6. Instead of locking in at shutter priority, try manual. Most of your shots are around 1/1000, f7.1, ISO 200. You can try 1/2000, f5.6, ISO 200. You just need to adjust the shutter speed accordingly.
Thanks for the feedback, I can see you really took some time to give me great advice. Much appreciated.
