With a virtually guaranteed Olympics in 2034 and Utah’s new NHL team to face off in the fall, youth sports could get a huge boost in participation and financial assistance.

The Arizona Coyotes' move to Utah is a coming-of-age moment for Salt Lake City. It gives the midsize market its second major professional sports franchise and a chance to prove that it can sustain multiple pro teams year-round.
