  • An Analysis of Sports Agent Regulation in Intercollegiate Athletics: a Call for Cooperation
    Journal of Legal Aspects of Sport, 2014, 24, 62-77 Official Journal of SRLA http://dx.doi.org/10.1123/jlas.2014-0004 www.JLAS-Journal.com © 2014 Sport and Recreation Law Association ORIGINAL RESEARCH An Analysis of Sports Agent Regulation in Intercollegiate Athletics: A Call for Cooperation Ross Viltz, Chad Seifried, and Jeremy Foreman The purpose of this article is to review the current environment associated with agents, student-athletes and the other parties involved with the organization and management of intercollegiate sport and to discuss how these groups can better work together at Division I Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS) institutions. Within, a total of 29 (23.2%) of the 125 Division-1 FBS universities responded to our request to provide institutional literature on their agent policies and Agent Days. Results from this request and analysis of documents show some effort to educate student-athletes about sport agents and to create an ethical environment but more could be done. Next, this work sought to review the realities/outcomes of unethical agent and student-athlete relationships and explain the policies and practices of the NCAA as well as federal and state laws regarding agent and student-athlete interaction. Finally, this work offers a variety of suggestions/recommendations to better protect student-athletes and institutions. According to the National Football League Players Association (NFLPA; 2006), there are more than 700 registered agents allowed to work for the National Football League (NFL). Bechta (2009) explained that after the final roster cuts nearly 400 of these agents will have no clients on an NFL roster and therefore no income to pay off their large expenses.

  • Comparison of the Current Situation of China and the United States Sports Brokerage Industry
    2020 3rd International Conference on Economic Management and Green Development (ICEMGD 2020) Comparison of the Current Situation of China and the United States Sports Brokerage Industry Song Shuang1, a, * 1China Basketball College, Beijing Sport University, Xinxi Rd,No.48, Beijing, China [email protected] *corresponding author Keywords: sports brokerage industry, China-US comparison, athlete brokerage, policy suggestion Abstract: By comparing the current status of the development of sports brokerage in China and the United States, this paper displays the common issues, addresses the existed short comes of China’s sports brokerage, and gives some advices. This paper mainly compares three aspects, the industry itself, athlete brokers, and relevant commercial events. From the perspective of the industry itself, the Chinese sports brokerage industry has relatively low requirements on the education qualifications of employees, training attaches importance to theory rather than practice, and the qualification certification mechanism is not yet complete. In terms of policies and laws, China has not yet made national unified legislation on sports brokerage. As for the scope of business, the business content only stays on some of the most basic and primitive brokerage forms and does not connect well with other industries. From the perspective of athlete brokerage, the transfer of Chinese players is still government-led and the market is less liquid. The professionalization of athletes under the national system is not complete. Athletes develop their own intangible assets through the brokerage industry, which often conflicts with the interests of the overall economic development of their units. From the perspective of commercial events, the current number of commercial events in China is increasing, and the events involved are more extensive, but the number of events operated through the domestic brokerage industry is still small.
