3. Sports Law? Is it Important?
Those engaged in the debate concerning whether sports law constitutes a substantive area of law tend to adopt one of three positions: 1) no separately identifiable body of law exists that can be designated as sports law and the possibility that such a corpus of law will ever develop is extremely remote; 2) although sports law does not presently represent a separately identifiable substantive area of law, recent developments suggest that in the near future it will warrant such recognition; or 3) a body of law resently exists that can appropriately be designated as sports law
Sports Law? Is it Important?
‘The debate on the existence of sports law as an independent field of law is not
extraordinary given that questions about the legitimacy of new fields of law are not
uncommon. Similar controversy accompanied the emergence of ‘computer law,’
for example. Such diverse areas of the law as employment law, health law and
environmental law ensured similar fates until they became generally recognised as
specific fields of law. The process of recognising a new area of the law is slowmoving,
because it is connected with a fundamental process of change in society.

Does such a thing as European (EU) sports law exist? Weatherill says that the simple answer to this question is ‘yes,’ but that simple answers tend to be misleading, and that this is the case here, too.
