I agree - this and your newer one are good captures of the action. I am not a PS user, and only partially understand LR tools, so take this with a grain of salt: Instead of trying to eliminate the second kid, can you selectively soften the background, including the kid? He is a nice element in the photo, but somehow needs to be de-emphasized. It seems that you are fighting with a tough setting, and you are always going to have background clutter; would it help to open up the lens and keep only your subject in focus?
