I agree with Andrew's comments.

I find if you have lack of a strong focal point with wide landscapes then you can create one by getting low to the ground. Something mundane can suddenly anchor a picture, be it a clump of grass, pebble or stick.

I also think the boat picture looks better cropped.

A good set, including the cheeky one at the end !

The fact you feel these are too static, I don't think is a problem since there is evidence of movement with the gravel / wheels off ground etc

I like 7 and 9 the best but would have been happy to take them all.

Agree with Snappychappy re the timing.

What lens are you using ?

Sometimes there can be too much going on in sports pictures and trying to eliminate background players with shallow depth of field or a different angle can bring a more intimate/intense shot. For example I find the players in the background in No4 distracting from the action.

If possible I would try and get some closer pictures of indiviuals as well, especially after a goal etc, the losers face can often tell a story if captured at these moments.
