Reviews
1. ISLR 3/15 (reviewed by Michael Beloff QC)
“The book is indispensable to anyone who aspires to appear before CAS as an advocate or to advise a client, is involved at some level within the domestic sports regulatory or disciplinary system (…) and indeed one who seeks to enter into an ad hoc agreement conferring jurisdiction on CAS”.
“The commentary helpfully analyses the Code article by article, and does not only aggregate the leading cases and commentary but deals head on with difficult questions such as the distinction between what constitutes a jurisdictional issue and what relates to the merits of a case (...). It also explains the philosophy behind some Articles, for example, Article 64.5 (…)”.
“I have little doubt that CAS will flourish and expand; and with the aid of this new book English practitioners (as well as others) can play their role in that expansion.”
2. Arbitration International (Oxford), Nicolas Ulmer
“The book… uniquely combines much practical knowledge with a solid academic and historical analysis, replete with footnotes to sources…. It will retain, an authoritative character, and it would be difficult or impossible for even the most knowledgeable sports arbitrator to compete with or replicate such a text.“
“The Commentary is and will be the “go to” reference book in CAS arbitration and case law, and the interactions between sports and commercial arbitration are now sufficient that any comprehensive arbitration library should consider adding the Commentary to its shelves.”
3. Marquette Sports Law Review & International Sports Law Review blog (Prof. Matt Mitten).
“This comprehensive treatise of more than 700 pages on the Code of the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) is an excellent resource that is useful to a wide audience, including attorneys representing parties before the CAS, CAS arbitrators, and sports law professors and scholars, as well as international arbitration counsel, arbitrators and scholars.”
“This excellent book is must reading for attorneys representing parties before the CAS and CAS arbitrators. It is a valuable resource for sports law professors and scholars as well as international arbitration counsel, arbitrators and scholars concerning the CAS arbitration process for resolving Olympic and international sports disputes. This book is an important addition to my library of sports law materials, which I anticipate consulting and referencing frequently.”
4. International Spots Law Journal, TMC Asser Instituut 2016, (Marco van der Harst)
“This book is a welcome addition to the specialised scholarship on the particularities of the CAS system and its underlying relationship with the Swiss legal context...”
5. SportsAndTaxation.com (Prof. Ian Blackshaw)
“This Book is a welcome addition to the Literature on Sports Law in general and on the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) in particular…”
“An admirable and impressive Book…”
