It has a sports setting, you can just keep your finger on the button and it keeps taking pictures as long as you hold it down.

I'll have to try that setting myself the next time Sierra & Bud are running around going crazy.

If the football game was during the daytime, the shots shouldn't have been very blurry unless they were just plain out of focus or he didn't keep the camera still when shooting. There is a setting that changes how the focus locks on to things, he might want to play with that sometime and see what works best or pre-focus on say the 50 yard line or somewhere ahead of the action and wait until the players get into that focus area.

If the game was at night under the lights there's a few tricks you can try to get the action better....
Set your ISO to 200 or 400
Try 'Panning' with the camera (this means keeping your player in focus and move the camera in the same direction they are moving at the same speed, take the pix WHILE the camera is still moving. If done right the player should be clear while the background is blurred) That helps make up for low lighting with fast action.

Here's a link that better explains 'Panning'. http://digital-photography-school.co...ving-subjects/
