About the Organisers

The NUJS-Centre for Sports Law and Policy (CSLP) was established in 2019 with the objective of fostering a culture of innovation, legal scholarship, and policy-making in the domain of Sports Law and its many interactions with the subjects.

About the International Conference

The conference is the first of its kind in India and second globally. The conference will be presided over by eminent personalities associated with Sports law and have immense experience in the fields concerned. The conference will also provide a platform for paper presentations on various contemporary themes.

Player Contract means the standard form of the written agreement between a player and a Team required for use in the relationships, which are all bound together by the contractual agreement formed between the parties. The contractual agreement determines important issues such as the rights and obligations of the parties.
