Our lawyers Jaime Cambreleng and Carol Etter attended the 9th Conference organized in Lausanne by the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) and the Swiss Bar Association. This biennial event is a fantastic opportunity to reconnect with friends and colleagues from around the world and discuss the latest developments and future challenges in Sports Law.
The first session covered interesting topics like competition law and sports, the exploitation of digital rights in professional football, and current trends and case law in sports-related disputes, with a special focus on athlete rights in doping-related proceedings and disciplinary cases. The conference continued with a review of CAS jurisprudence in football and the latest updates on FIFA’s rules and regulations.
