From Champions League football at the Etihad to the Para Swimming World Championships at the Aquatics Centre – sport is synonymous with Manchester, and Brabners’ sports sector team is ranked in the top tier with many of our individual lawyers acknowledged as experts in their fields. The business of sport has become increasingly sophisticated with complex commercial contracts, sponsorship deals, major events, fan engagement and brand protection featuring heavily. In addition, in recent years, international federations, national governing bodies, clubs, rights holders and other stakeholders have had to respond and adapt to increasingly complex regulatory frameworks and obligations as well as broader societal issues, such as equality for women in sport, the eligibility and participation of transgender and DSD athletes, the impact of sport on the environment, greenwashing and human rights. Join us to gain a fascinating insight from our lawyers on these high-profile and rapidly developing areas. You will also have the opportunity to test your legal and commercial acumen by taking part in an interactive case study based upon a matter handled by our team.
