The Sports Law & Business Seminar Series

Premiership Strategies International, in conjunction with Cornwall Stodart Lawyers, launched the Sports Law and Business Seminar Series in mid 2005.

The SLAB Seminar Series brings together the leading minds of the sports world – industry leaders, legal practitioners and academics – in a forum to share knowledge, exchange ideas and discuss solutions to sports law and sports business issues of common interest. 

Seminar leaders include legal practitioners and in-house counsel, economists, accountants, sports property owners and managers, government officials and academics.  The seminars are a forum for open discussion and debate and run for around 90 to 120 minutes.  So as to ensure the right mix of individuals and maximum value for seminar participants, attendance is by invitation only.

Seminar topics of immediate practical interest and longer-term strategic value are being developed, including:

• Taxation and sport: Assessable income and non-deductible expenses following the Stone decision.
• Sports tribunal systems: The AFL and NRL models.
• Trade Practices: Implications of the Seven Network / C7 litigation.
• Broadcasting: The Anti-Siphoning list.
• Legal liability and sports insurance.
• Representing the professional athlete: ‘Whole of life' planning.
• Collective bargaining, salary caps and revenue sharing between players, clubs and sport development.
• Commercial agreements: structuring effective sponsorships and preventing ambush marketing.
• Corporate governance, corporate structures and sports governance.
• New developments in intellectual property.

The SLAB Seminar Series is an exciting professional development and networking opportunity for professionals with a serious interest in the law, business and economics of sport.
