overview of the United States legal system, including the court
system, the various types of law, and legal resources. Students
will then explore important topics such as risk management,
employment law, gender equity, intellectual property, and
constitutional law, examining the relevance of the law at hand to
real-world applications across the field of sport management. This

comprehension by looking at laws and issues through timely, modern
points of view. New content reflects important topics and current
legal issues, including the Equal Pay Act; the Sports Broadcasting
Act; athlete safety and equipment concerns; name, image, and
likeness (NIL) laws; antitrust litigation, unionization, and
collective bargaining; and transgender athlete participation in
sport. The updated content addresses contemporary challenges to
constitutional law, including the First Amendment and Fourteenth
Amendment, and it examines how budget problems related to COVID-19
resulted in cutting sports and raised Title IX issues.

modern applied perspectives. Moot Court Case sidebars now have
accompanying questions on hypothetical scenarios, allowing students
to understand the technicalities of sport law in practical
