Title: Sport, Physical Activity, and the Law
Description: "Knowledge of the law is vital for anyone involved in administering sport and physical activity programs. But for many administrators, finding answers to the legal situations and dilemmas that arise every day can be difficult and time-consuming. Now students and professionals can find the legal knowledge they need to manage programs effectively and avoid legal problems in Sport, Physical Activity, and the Law. It's a comprehensive text that makes sport law concepts easy to understand and apply." "Sport, Physical Activity, and the Law takes a practical approach, showing you how to use the law as a management tool to address day-to-day issues like the right to participate, liability for injuries, the effective assertion of legal rights, risk management, the legal status of organizations that govern sport, and statutes such as the Americans with Disabilities Act. The book features 68 real-world cases that illustrate legal concepts as they have been applied in sport and recreation programs. And special Canadian applications, written by a Canadian attorney, address the major differences between U.S. and Canadian law." "It's much easier to prevent a legal problem than to resolve one. Sport, Physical Activity, and the Law gives you the information you need to understand the law, minimize the likelihood of lawsuits, and maximize the chances of winning any that occur."--BOOK JACKET.
