Regulatory & Disciplinary Proceedings
Governing bodies and teams will usually have rules; regulations; and sanctions governing their particular sport. It is therefore important that all of these elements are lawful, so that each stakeholder is represented fairly.
Members of Mercantile Barristers are experienced in advising clients on a variety of sporting regulatory and disciplinary matters and have advised governing bodies, player associations and participants on a variety of issues including drafting and amending of constitutions, disciplinary hearings and appeals and advocating in sports specialist arbitration panels.
