A couple of additional things to consider and looking at the other photos, they look like they were taken at ice level, inside or under the netting that can be seen at the ends.

Depending on ISO, your lens speed, and available light, there may be no advantage in image quality to shooting raw, AND with the K10D you can shoot continually at max jpeg resolution and 3+ frames per second (this might be a big advantage in action shots). Pregame shots you can treat differently and you have implied you might use a flash for those, so go ahead and shoot them in RAW if you wish,

For white balance adjustment, the K10D has a feature that is really neat. Take a photo, hit the Fn button and select white balance, you can adjust it interactively, i.e. when you change it, the balance in the image displayed changes also. getting the white balance correct, or more importantly as you want it since perfect balance might leave the images a little cold (no pun intended) is a snap. This is not really explained in the manuals
