70-200/2.8.   VR/IS is a plus in a lens of that length but for sports you probably need to shoot fast enough to stop action that it may not be a necessity.  Both Canon & Nikon's 70-200/2.8 are among their best zooms and are great lenses.

Elwood: I traded it.
Jake: You traded the Blues Mobile for this?
Elwood: No. For a microphone.
Jake: A microphone? Okay I can see that.

what he said.

The canon 70-200Lf2.8 is tack sharp.  Fantastic IQ!
