Default Baseball Collage a little help

One of my clients asked if I would build them a collage of their sons baseball pictures and I wanted to get some feedback from y'all before I sent it to them to look at.

Collage

Big thing is the quality of the pictures and how they are positioned together.

Thank you.

I like it very much,although I would change the borders on the insert photos to black so they POP from the main photo.

I like it. allthough there are 2 things I would change, I am not a fan of the the pictures in the lower left and upper right. I don't like the coach in the background in the lower left photo and the upper right right photo doesn't grab my attention. It's just there, like a place holder. I really like the photo in the upper left, it grabs my attention, maybe move it and make it a bit bigger.

Just my 2cents worth......

Thank you for the comments and the help.

I will look into seeing if I can change it to black border I do not know how too but will read into it.

as far as the picture in the bottom left goes the coach in the background is the dad of the player and the collage is for him so his wife wanted that picture in there. I also like the idea of making the picture in the top left bigger and will do that.

again thank you for the comments.

The pictures themselves are good. I also think darker borders will help, but I'm not too crazy about the random angular borders on the insets. I find that it doesn't really draw my eye anywhere in particular in the overall image. Instead it kid of forces the eye to ricochet all around and generally distracts from the overall theme of the composition.
