If you can get proper exposures, JPG will probably work. If you find that you're unable to get a good enough exposure tho without the flash, you can use RAW and underexpose a little to give yourself a little extra speed advantage. Use your RAW converter to bring the exposure back to normal.

I don't think you have a choice but to use the flash. Places are usually dark and they are moving fairly fast. Unless you're going for a specific blur shot, you may be forced to use the flash.

Anyways, try this if your original idea doesn't work.

- Use built in flash, -0.3 Flash compensation, 2nd curtain sync.
- Shutter speed priority (the 2nd curtain sync will make the camera measuring for ambient lighting), note your shutter will be fairly slow to obtain the proper exposure.
- Auto ISO

Play with the flash compensation accordingly. The flash will give the picture a frozen motion after some blur from the fairly long shutter speed.
