We do not accept images of professional athletes, or athletes that appear to be professional, from any sporting events, such as games, races, practices, or promotional functions. Professional athletes are very protective of their likeness and the matter of recognizability becomes very important. For instance, individual pro baseball players all have their own particular way of positioning themselves to hit the ball, of running and standing, even of how they wear their uniform. Just because you are not showing a face or number does not mean the athlete is unrecognizable. Models wearing generic clothing playing sports may be acceptable.
