Nice composition... shadows on the balls seem a bit dark - perhaps could have bounced some more light onto them?

Very nice and simple composition, the tone fits with the image. Good job...

Good luck...

Really excellent textures in this picture, which are highlighted nicely by desaturating it. A bit of a glare on the right two balls, but overall an excellent shot. Nice job!

Love that you used good sunlight to capture this. However, would maybe have been better in full colour than black and white. I think a shot with the balls exactly as they are, but shot vertical - with a bit more negative space, might have made this more interesting. Good luck.

I'm not sure the B&W treatment is right for this subject. The contrast between the green and the white(?) of the balls would have been great.

Nice image,b/w effect gives it real depth. Mark lost for calling it Soccer though (It is football) (Only Joking)
