I've seen some people do Sports photography here and thought this might interest a few.
http://theshot.espn.com/
It's a contest hosted by ESPN that searches for photographs of Sports in almost every way.

ZOOM
Capturing the action and emotion of athletic competition at its most intense.
FACES OF THE GAME
The ups and downs of sports, as seen on the faces of the men and women who play them.
FANDEMONIUM
Whether it's camping at a tailgate or screaming from the stands, honoring the true heroes in sports.
NEXT IN YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD
Showcasing young phenoms dominating a field near you.
MASCOTS
The athletes are just the ones playing in between the lines. A tribute to men and women (and animals) who make the sidelines entertaining.

That pay shit is lame but the reward is too good to look over. I'm going to see if I can find something to shoot.
PS. To clarify on the pay, it's 12.95 to submit one photo so submit your best

burgundyVcms - Honesty, I don't think it would be worth the entry fee. Just keep practicing and maybe by the next contest you can come up with something that will be better.

Well, the entry fee discourages people to submit shitty photos.

If you look at the photos people submitted you can see tons of shitty photos.
