I shoot the Minnesota soccer team with my Inspire 1 quad copter, and the wind chill ultimate USAU disc/frisbee league both air/ground video.

Not sure if my company Eye Aerial will do it this year or not, the owners moved to Florida and aren't as active in MN as before.

<shoulder-of-the-road post>

I was interested to note that one of my favorite entertainment personalities, Drew Carey, does (or did, anyhow) sports photography under a  pseudonym.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drew_Carey

Quote
Carey can sometimes be seen on the sidelines of U.S. National Team soccer games as a press photographer.[68] His images are sold via wire services under the pseudonym Brooks Parkenridge.[57] He was at the 2006 FIFA World Cup in the summer of 2006, for his television show Drew Carey's Sporting Adventures.

He's got sort of a Libertarian mindset, but he describes a Libertarian as "a conservative who gets high."
