Well, for indoor sports you'll definitely want Super Steady Shot turned on, you'll probably need to use ISO 400, 800, or 1600 depending on the light. I would put it in aperature priority and shoot wide open f/4 to get the fastest shutter speeds possible for given aperature and ISO. So I would go ahead and set SSS on, and set aperature priority f/4 and check the shutter speed. I would then adjust ISO depending on desired/given shutter speeds.
Good luck and congrats on the new lens! Please post some samples. This lens has a cult following and if you ask me is the most bang for the buck that can be had in a single lens. Sharp, great colors, and bokeh to die for.

Wow you move quick! Post the pictures for that event so we can see how well you are doing.
The Sony Alpha community on this forum is growing. We mus stick together...
The "beercan" (70-210 f/4) should do you proud. I use it for concert/low light situations often, without flash. Here's some examples... there's better examples, but I don't feel like digging, you get the idea...
