Drafting Sports Contracts

Drafting Sports Contracts

Sport is a highly competitive and lucrative industry that continues to expand. This makes it a hugely profitable sector for businesses seeking to establish contracts within it.

The commercial potential within the sporting industry is now globally recognised with sport now worth over 3% of total world trade. The acceleration of the sporting industry in recent years has brought with it some fantastic opportunities for businesses. New developments in media and technology have also facilitated opportunities for businesses involved in the sporting arena to maximise the potential for commercial gain.

Managing the Interests of the Business

It is not surprising that businesses involved in the world of sport are increasingly looking to solicitors to obtain commercially adept advice at the earliest possible opportunity in order to cover each and every professional interest they may have.

Our specialist solicitors possess an unrivalled reputation of providing commercial clarity coupled with a detailed knowledge of the national and international rules and regulations governing such sporting contracts. This allows us to make informed decisions integral to the protection of each client’s objectives whilst also satisfying commercial objectives.
