disputes include arbitration, mediation, negotiation, and litigation. Effective
management of sports disputes requires a comprehensive understanding of the
relevant laws, regulations, and governing bodies involved in the sport, as well
as the ability to balance the interests of all parties involved. Sports disputes are common in the world of
sports, as athletes, teams, and organizations frequently clash over a range of
issues, including rules violations, performance-enhancing drugs, contract
disputes, and disciplinary actions. Resolving these disputes requires a
comprehensive understanding of the legal framework that governs sports, as well
as an appreciation for the unique cultural and organizational dynamics that
shape the sporting world. This abstract provides a brief overview of the nature
of sports disputes and the key legal and organizational factors that play a
role in resolving them. It also highlights the importance of alternative
