Congrats on your new purchase. I picked up a Slik Pro Poc 381 Carbon Fiber monopod this past winter. I put Bogen/Manfrotto 3229 Swivel Tilt head with the quick release on it and I'm very happy with this set up. I haven't used it for sports yet (this weekend) but for what I have used it for, I'm very happy with it. Nice and light, very sturdy for shooting with a heavy lens. and tall enough that I don't have to bend over to use it if I'm standing up.
