Do i look to buy? Thanks im a newbie in dslr's
Answer
Lens hoods are lens specific.
You need to contact Tamron for the proper hood
If you understood the fundamentals of photography, you would understand this.
Before you spend any more time and money on your camera, take at least one class in photography.

What DSLR camera & lens would be best for football pictures?
Kay
Hi, I've never owned a DSLR in my life so I'm a little out of league with this. My dad, who is a head football coach at my old high school, is wanting pictures of his team, game day and practice pictures that are higher quality. I have 2 digital cameras already but neither take decent sports pictures, especially at night with the bright lights. I don't want anything over $300, and even that is stretching it. So what would be a decent priced DSLR camera for night-time sports pics? And would it need a special lens?
Thanks, yea like I said I'm way out of my league with this one. I've never owned a camera that cost more than $100. I just started looking at cameras on Best Buys website and discovered for myself, to much sadness, the cheapest DSLR was $450, with out lenses. So I guess I'll try to find a better point-and-shoot camera. Thank you all again!!
Answer
Any dSLR that can shoot at 3200 ISO with very little noise and allow for custom white balance.
The lens you will need is probably something like a 200-400 mm f/4 or 300 mm f/2.8
As you will see when you do the research, such a camera/lens combination will cost you in excess of $8,500.
To produce high quality sports photos, you need a dSLR camera since it has a sensor that is over 15 times larger than any P&S camera, have no shutter lag that is noticeable (unlike a P&S which can take a full second before the shutter opens and closes after you have pressed the shutter release) and even when shooting on the sidelines, a long lens like a 300 mm f/2.8 and a medium focal length zoom like a 70-200 mm f/2.8 lens are important if you want to catch the shots you and your father wish
Here is a sample shot, using a 300 mm f/2.8 lens with the camera set to 3200 ISO.

As you will notice, even at 3200 ISO, there is little noise and the shutter speed was high enough to prevent all but a tiny bit of blur
Sadly NO $300 camera can produce such images.
If you were to shoot using an older Nikon F4 35 mm SLR, 3200 ISO black and white film and the same lenses, you could shave off some of the costs. Nikon F4 = about $300, used, body only A new AF-S 300 mm f/4 lens, about $1,500 vs a AF-S 300 mm f/2.8 at $5,900.
You may be able to find some of this equipment used, but as you can see, your budget is not too close to reality for what you are asking.
The Nikon Coolpix P500 costs under $400 and has a nice long optical zoom, but you will be needing to deal with lower quality due to the tiny sensor and shutter lag that will cause you to miss critical shots
You understand what you need, but your budget is just a tad off.
