Royals City Guide

The Utah Royals train daily at the Zions Bank Training Center in Herriman, tucked against the Oquirrh Mountains at the southwest edge of the Salt Lake metro. Everything below radiates from that facility, not from downtown or the Sandy game venue. The two closest upscale hubs are the Daybreak master-planned community in South Jordan (8-12 minutes northeast) and Riverton (7-10 minutes north), both offering newer construction, privacy, and quick access to the practice fields.
