Sports in Greater Des Moines

History

The Des Moines Area Sports Commission (DMASC) became an official supporting organization of the Greater Des Moines CVB in 2008. The DMASC, previously known as the Greater Des Moines Sports Authority, was established as an organization in 1992 and was known as the Sports Authority until 2002 when it entered into a support agreement and came under the umbrella of the Greater Des Moines CVB. 

Today the DMASC's mission is to establish Greater Des Moines as the premier Midwest community for recreational and competitive sport participation and competition.

World-Class Events

Greater Des Moines has a strong tradition of successful sporting events. The DMASC is experienced in handling events with 14,000 athletes at the Junior Olympic Games and premier events such as the Hy-Vee ITU World Cup Triathlon, the Principal Charity Classic and Drake Relays, which take place annually in Greater Des Moines. Indy and NASCAR Racing at the Iowa Speedway also continue to draw fans to the area again and again.
