Kevin Airey -
Yes, the D750 does off a crop mode, so you can use that if necessary for more reach (narrower angle of view - ducks for cover!). I use the crop mode on a D7200, it is a crop body, but crops further still that gives a slightly higher FPS rate, it still produces images at 16mp i think which is more than enough for what I do with them. I have assigned one of the front function buttons to allow me to cycle through the crop option quickly. A small box appears in the view finder showing your available area - not ideal but when you get used to it. Perfectly usable.
Yes, the non-is version. I see no point in spending the huge money for an IS lens if your sole aim is sport shooting as to freeze action, your shutter speeds will be above camera shake issues.
When I do indoor sports, mainly netball, shoot from the corners as well. You're fine at just about any focal length - just work with what you have. If you have a shorter lens, take more action shots at the goal end. As the action comes closer, it may come too close! Then you'l have to stick to midfield action.
As for lens manufactures - in the used market on a budget, the difference between an non-manufacture lens and a manufacture lens is relatively small if you search around. I always prefer the manufacture fast zooms, both Nikon and Canon in my experience AF faster, more accurately and of course you have a better chance of older lenses working on newer bodies.
