    Making the Rules of Sports Fairer

    Making the Rules of Sports Fairer Steven J. Brams Department of Politics New York University New York, NY 10012 USA [email protected] Mehmet S. Ismail Department of Economics Maastricht University PO Box 616 6200 MD Maastricht The Netherlands [email protected] 2 Making the Rules of Sports Fairer Abstract The rules of many sports are not fair—they do not ensure that equally skilled competitors have the same probability of winning. As an example, the penalty shootout in soccer, wherein a coin toss determines which team kicks first on all five penalty kicks, gives a substantial advantage to the first-kicking team, both in theory and practice. We show that a so-called Catch- Up Rule for determining the order of kicking would not only make the shootout fairer but also is essentially strategyproof. By contrast, the so-called Standard Rule now used for the tiebreaker in tennis is fair. We briefly consider several other sports, all of which involve scoring a sufficient number of points to win, and show how they could benefit from certain rule changes, which would be straightforward to implement. 3 Making the Rules of Sports Fairer1 1. Introduction In this paper, we show that the rules for competition in some sports are not fair. By “fair,” we mean that they give equally skilled competitors the same chance to win—figuratively, they level the playing field. Later we will be more precise in defining “fairness.” We first consider knockout (elimination) tournaments in soccer (i.e., football, except in North America), wherein one team must win.
