Sport, Physical Activity, And The Law

Sport, Physical Activity, and the Law

This book 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 American 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.About the AuthorNeil J Dougherty, Alan S Goldberger and Linda Jean Carpenter
