Okay. For now the difficulties I've encountered in sports photographs are like, almost hardware part. The first game, I shot with my Olympus E-3 and the autofocus, ISO performance are amazingly poor. I have to spend some time on post processing and that still didn't get me too much good result. Here I switched to the other body I have, the Nikon D7000 which has rated better overall performance than D300(ISO, autofocus, megapixel counts etc). To sum up, you will need at least 300mm and aperture as large as you can get to reach what you really want to shoot. Trust me. I wouldn't just satisfied at 400mm. If you want to, 70-200mm/ F2.8 is where you might be interested. Also I'm getting a Nikkor 1.4 teleconverter so I can reach 200mm*1.5*1.4= 420mm. Awesome! (well the trade off is you lose one stop).
I will be shooting more games and hope I can share all the works with you soon.
