That looks a little out of focus to me.  He is moving fast.  Did you use AIServo?

When you use AIServo, and you focus on your target, wait a tiny little bit before you take the picture to allow the camera focus to settle a bit.  I also use one point of focus, the center one.  This way the camera does not choose where to focus;  I do that.

In a venue like that I would prefer a monopod instead of a tripod.

As a start i think you did very well, especially considering the lens you are using.
