A good example of this, among many other recent examples, is the case of the United States of America’s National Football League (NFL), the governing body for American football, which, in 2015, committed to pay US$ 1 billion to settle the class action filed by its former professional players..This book examines how to most efficiently reduce these public health and legal risks, and proposes a harmonised solution across sports and legal systems. . | | 出版日期 | Book 2020 | | 关键词 | International Sports Law; Sport concussion; Sports injuries; Sports governing bodies; Governance sports | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-981-15-1979-6 | | isbn_softcover | 978-981-15-1981-9 | | isbn_ebook | 978-981-15-1979-6 | | copyright | Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd. 2020 |
