Sport has become a field that contributes to physical and social life at both national and international levels, aiming not only to improve the body and mind but also to provide socialization and entertainment. As a concept that addresses wide audiences and has evolved into a transnational structure through various organizations and federations, sporting activities—like any growing field—have required legal regulation for athletes, federations, clubs, and independent sports organizations.
At this point, Sports Law has emerged as a rapidly developing and comprehensive legal field in Türkiye and worldwide. Sports Law regulates the rights and obligations of athletes, as well as the structures, management, and operational frameworks of clubs, federations, and independent sports organizations at both national and international levels.
