Being winter here in Brisbane, the grass is sparser and not very green like you see in the Northern Hemisphere.
Shadows on this field at 8am and fluoro bibs (the K20D with matrix metering overexposes by about 1 stop when these bibs are sunlit) were the main difficulties this time.
The K20D does not really have good enough noise performance in the shadows to allow the use of a -1 EVcomp setting in this situation.
The voice in my head, saying "Get a K-5", is becoming more persistent. I'm sure its better metering, better shadow noise, and probably better AF, would help here.
My son, Kaiea, in the red & white boots, was still recovering from a cold, but wanted to play anyway, so "Action Man" was more subdued than normal.

Sunnybank Saints Cyclones (in the fluro bibs) vs
Sunnybank Saints Vortex.
Score: 3-0
Our team, Cyclones, is the top of ladder of the Queensland Christian Soccer Association, South Division U9, with one game to go:
Queensland Christian Soccer Association
Then we get into the preliminaries, semi-finals & finals!
Next match is at a different field at 10am so I'm hoping for better lighting. No bibs next time.
