ABOUT THE SYMPOSIUM

Because sports generate billions of dollars, the law has come to apply more and more to that industry.  This Symposium will look at three issues – concussions, steroids, and the use of athletes’ images - where law and sports intersect in a way that has garnered national attention. Panels of experts consisting of those most closely involved with these issues--athletes, lawyers, journalists, owners, officers of sanctioning organizations, physicians--will present the state of the art to an audience that will be limited to 200 attendees.

 

WHO SHOULD ATTEND?

Attendance will be worthwhile for all those affiliated with sports: coaches, administrators, officials, athletes, lawyers, physicians, journalists, and executives from teams, leagues and sanctioning organizations. These issues have ramifications across the board.
