These issues have led to sport no longer being confined to the back pages of traditional media such as newspapers, but increasingly e="font-family: tahoma; font-size: 12px;">finding its way onto the front pages and into new media. Since ancient times sport has been practised but today it is a multi-billion dollar ?industry?, and Sports Law as a discipline in its own right is developing apace and is increasingly being studied and practiced at all levels of interest and compet ency. Thereby creating n> a need amongst students, lawyers, accountants, sports marketers, promoters, agents, sports broadcasters, sports administrators and managers for some basic and general knowledge of the legal aspects of sport. This introductory guide to international s ports law will serve to satisfy the needs currently pan> not being met in present-day sports law literature, and should also be of interest to researchers and the general reader. Although the topics covered are necessarily selective, sports law being such a vast subject, they are representative of the main legal issues facing the world of sport today. Throughout the book, the reader is referred to erif">articles, publications and other materials that provide further information on the various subjects treated in the text, thus enhancing its value and usefulness. The Law is stated as at 1 January 2017, according to the sources available at that date. Prof. Ian S. Blackshaw is an International Sports Lawyer, a Solicitor of the Supreme Court ont face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif">of England and Wales, and a Visiting Professor at several Universities, including Anglia Ruskin University, Cambridge, United Kingdom, and The University of Pretoria, South Africa.
