The Utah Sports Commission is a leadership organization established in 2000 that attracts and hosts major regional, national, and international sporting events. The commission collaborates with the Olympic Legacy Foundation and national governing bodies such as Ski & Snowboard, US Speedskating, USA Climbing, and Biathlon. The private company is based in Salt Lake City, UT. It facilitates events at venues such as America First Field, Delta Center, Rice-Eccles Stadium, Dixie Convention Center, Epic Sports Park, Maverik Center, Expo Center, Salt Lake Regional Athletic Complex, Salt Palace Convention Center, and Soldier Hollow Nordic Center. The commission organizes signature events like the annual championship golf tournament at Ogden Golf & Country Club, the Governor’s State of Sport Awards, and supports events including the USA Climbing Youth National Championships and Monster Jam World Finals. It is involved in the Olympic and Paralympic legacy, having supported the 2002 Winter Olympics and Paralympics and playing a role in the selection to host the 2034 Winter Games. Volunteers contribute to the success of events, and the commission engages in strategic partnerships and community initiatives to promote sports tourism, active lifestyles, and economic development.
