Sports

Only those who understand sport, its players and special customs – in other words, those who speak the language of sport – can offer successful legal support and organization. At GRUENGOLD, we have been advising national and international associations, clubs, leagues, sports corporations and athletes on the entire spectrum of sports law for many years. We regularly represent parties in sports-related disputes before state courts and arbitration tribunals and also act as arbitrators.

Thanks to this experience and an extensive network in sport, we can provide you with comprehensive support:

in the legal structuring and general drafting of contracts, in particular in the area of media production and exploitation of sporting events and competitions.
on all sponsorship issues, including tax aspects.
in the development and protection of your marketing rights.
on strategic projects and transactions, in particular restructurings, spin-offs, mergers and investor participations.
in the drafting of articles of association, the responsibility of executive bodies and in the areas of governance, sustainability, liability and compliance.
