Check out this post from a mentor from the Killer Bees with a few years experience of photographing matches. It's not all about equipment, photography is an art. Jason allows some blur to create action in still photos, but also describes how to avoid "bad blur".

In a subsequent post, Jason addresses lighting and white balance. Some of this can be compensated in post-processing software (PhotoShop), but getting the exposures right when you take photos reduces unintended distortions in the corrections. Looking at the referee's shirts and seeing something other than pure white with black stripes is an indicator that the original exposure wasn't quite right.
