A longer, fast lens may be the better route to achieve subject isolation.
Yea, I know flashes are tricky and a single speed light isn't going to do much if you can't get close. I was just trying to show a way to blow out that nasty arena environment, but you're right... not realistic in this scenario. Handlers and Dogs would probably hate getting flashed at point blank range as they run by the OP's side of the bleachers, lol
