In-depth developments in sports law have occurred over the last few years in order to adapt to the changes in methods of consumption, both at the level of mass practice as well as at the high performance level. The law, regulations of federations as well as case law have intervened in order to answer a certain number of issues such as, in particular, the liability of organisers, sports betting and gambling, the fight against doping.
