About

CELS is delighted to announce that Professor Stephen Weatherill (Emeritus Jacques Delors Professor of European Law, Oxford University) will be delivering the 2022 Mackenzie Stuart Lecture. 

Title: 'Saving Football from Itself: Why and How to Re-Make EU Sports Law' 

Abstract: EU law's application to sport is ad hoc, ex post facto and driven by competition law (and occasionally free movement law). Something more systematic would be helpful - not least because governance in sport needs reform to prevent corruption, intransparency, unaccountable power etc. The latest example/flashpoint being the European SuperLeague.  This talk aims to explore these issues further.

This lecture takes place in a hybrid form. You can attend in LG19 in the Faculty, or online.
