Overview

Sport & Competition Law is an essential resource for lawyers, academics, regulators, sports governing bodies, clubs, athletes, and industry professionals. As sport has evolved into a global industry, shaped by powerful governing bodies, complex commercial relationships, and increasingly sophisticated regulatory frameworks, competition law has become a critical tool for assessing the legitimacy of sporting rules. The intersection of sport and competition law now lies at the heart of some of the most significant debates in contemporary sports regulation. Bringing together leading academics and practitioners from around the world, Sport & Competition Law examines the legal and economic principles governing sports markets, with particular focus on the role of competition law in shaping modern sports governance. The volume explores many of the most pressing issues facing the sports industry today, including the legacy of Bosman, the application of the Wouters and Meca-Medina doctrines, football transfer systems, home-grown player rules, football agents, multi-club ownership structures, the Super League project, State aid, and foreign subsidies. Combining analysis of European Union law with insights from a wide range of jurisdictions, the book offers a distinctive international perspective on the challenges and opportunities arising from the increasingly global nature of sport. By illuminating the legal principles that shape competition in sports markets, it provides a timely and authoritative guide to the future of sports regulation.
