Used mine at my sons indoor Futsal (variant of soccer on a basketball court) and at the kids piano recitals. Just long enough. I can get favorable seating that makes it work. Since I can’t drop a couple thousand on a 70-200 f/2.8, it does very nicely.

Get yourself a used Sigma Sports. I've payed only 850 euro.  That said, these lenses are only f/2.8, and if you can get close enough brighter primes simply rule in those situations.

Whatever you choose, there's no need to drop a couple of thousands on an RF 70-200mm f/2.8, unless you really need your f/2.8 zoom to be light weight. And if you have a 24-240mm....

45 is more than enough, but 500.000 isn't
