In this thoroughly revised Fourth Edition, Glenn Wong provides a
comprehensive review of the various sports law issues facing
professional, intercollegiate, Olympic, high school, youth, and
adult recreational sports. Major topics include tort liability,
contracts/waivers, antitrust law, labor law, constitutional law,
gender discrimination, drug testing, intellectual property law,
broadcasting laws pertaining to sports agents, business and
employment law, Internet gambling, and athletes with disabilities.
Significant additions here include new court decisions, agreements
(contracts and collective bargaining agreements), and legislation
(federal, state, association, and institutional rules and
regulations). Discussions of legal concepts are supplemented with
summaries and excerpts from hundreds of actual sports cases. Wong
cites a variety of books, law review articles, newspaper articles,
and Web links for those requiring further information on particular
topics. This text-professional guide serves as an invaluable
resource to those involved, or studying to become involved, in the
vast industry of sports.
