Sport, Physical Activity, and the Law takes a practical approach, exemplifying how to use the law as a day-to-day management tool. Issues discussed in this edition include risk management, responsibilities of game officials, breach of contract, product liability, role of the EEOC, right to participate, and statutes such as the Americans with Disabilities Act. This new edition features supplementary case studies, management guidelines, and discussion questions to help clarify each concept. It's much easier to prevent a legal problem than to resolve one.

Part I: Understanding and Dealing with Laws, & the Legal System; Part II: On the Bench or in the Game: Exclusion v. Inclusion; Part III: By the Rules: Personal Rights and Expectations; Part IV: Programme Management and Control; Part V: Legal Responsibility for Participant Safety.
