Sports Law: Governance and Regulation (College Edition)

· An Introduction to the Study of Sports Law (pp. 1–14) As you begin your study of sports law, it is essential to understand how sports law has evolved and how it relates to the legal system in general. Here the authors explain the debate about the nature of sports law. They also describe the fundamentals of the U.S. legal system and explain how and why those who study law use the case method.

· Chapter 1, “Regulating Interscholastic (High School) Athletics” (pp. 15–36, 40–47) As more and more school-aged individuals participate in increasingly popular and competitive interscholastic athletics, interscholastic sport regulations have also increased. The authors explain how and why legal challenges to these regulations are occurring and how the courts have been handling these challenges and how these responses relate to constitutional law.
