It investigates the problems that arise during sports and competitive activity, which is under a special regime of rules of law, structure, organization, implementation, and human behavior, based on experts and in a special context of rules of law, set by the legislator, or the private initiative and in which there is supervision and control by the
administration and the established sports authorities according to the provisions of the Constitution, laws and Lex Sportiva.
Sports Law consists of a) Rules of law for sports action on special issues of sports and the system of sports clubs, b)Rules of institutional autonomy, of Lex Sportiva for special sports issues.
Common law rules and general principles of law also apply to sport on many issues either directly, due to the lack ofspecific rules, or ihttps://www.sportslawacademy.com/sports-law-series/ndirectly by absorption, with a corresponding adjustment in their application, and often derogate from
common law rules, for example, the principle €œlex specialis derogat legi generali.
