Sports Betting has been legalized in Arizona as the Gov. Doug Ducey has signed a bill to legalise sports betting.

With the legalisation of the sports betting measures, the tribes, professional sports teams, fantasy sports gambling platforms and new Keno games could get the license issues.

It will also witness the rise of new horse race tracks and fraternal organisations.

The bill also allows establishment of four new casinos in the Phoenix area and on Gila River Indian Community holdings in the southeastern area.

Gov. Ducey said: “There’s no question that Arizona has grown and changed significantly since the last major compact update in 2003. It’s important that we account for these changes in our policies and our compacts.”
