About Utah Sports Commission

Shaping The State of Sport for 25 years

The Utah Sports Commission plays a key leadership role in attracting major sporting events to the state, driving economic impact, and boosting media exposure for Utah. Over the past quarter-century, the Sports Commission has continually adapted, serving as a facilitator, catalyst, and coordinator—taking on whatever role is needed to fulfill its mission.

The mission of the Utah Sports Commission is to help enhance Utah’s economy, image, and quality of life through the attraction, promotion, and development of national and international sports, and to be a catalyst for Utah in its Olympic & Paralympic efforts.
