Questions

Frequently asked

Many are resolved through the sport's own internal dispute mechanism or arbitration, including before bodies such as the Court of Arbitration for Sport for international matters, rather than the ordinary courts.

The athlete generally does, unless assigned or licensed under a specific agreement, which is why sponsorship and endorsement contracts need careful drafting on this point.
