By Gambling Insider

Its guests are now able to watch and wager on a variety of professional and college sporting events at the new on-site sportsbook.

With over 60 televisions, including jumbo flat screens and a high-definition video wall that allows viewing from every angle, the new 4,000 square foot-venue is located inside Casino Del Sol. Guests can place bets at any of the six live ticket writer counters, or eight self-service betting kiosks.

Featuring sitting for over 100 guests, the sportsbook has a full bar and food service with game-day favourites.

Casino Del Sol is managing all sports betting activities as the sportsbook’s operator and bookmaker. SolSports is powered by OpenSports, the sports betting technology. The Pascua Yaqui Tribe is a federally recognised tribe with more than 20,000 enrolled members, which owns and operates several enterprises, including Casino Del Sol.

Chairman of the Pascua Yaqui Tribe, Peter Yucupicio, said: “Our ability to offer sports wagering to our guests has been many years in the making, and we are elated to see our vision come to fruition with SolSports. This new gaming option will have a positive economic impact on our tribe and the state of Arizona.”

CEO of Casino Del Sol, Kimberly Van Amburg, added: “Our team developed a truly fantastic environment for sports fans to enjoy all of the game day action, and we are thrilled to welcome Tucsonans to experience the excitement of in-person sports betting at SolSports.”
