Abstract

This study is dedicated to the study of the issues of legal regulations of the arena of professional sport, identifying the features of such regulation at the level of the norms of "soft law" - corporate (local) acts. The legal nature of corporate (local) regulations regulating relations in professional sports, which form the basis of the horizontal system of private legal regulations of professional sports, is analyzed.

This study emphasizes that corporate (local) acts adopted and implemented in the field of sports should not contradict the current legislation, as well as acts of global treaties and law. "Soft law", as well as contractual regulation (self-regulation) of sport relations, at the current phase of sports growth in modern Russia, occupy the prime position in the system of regulating relations in the field of sport. Considering that the relations under study are mostly regulated at the level of soft law norms, the resolution of conflicts in the domain of sports with the involvement of coaches and athletes should be carried out by specialized arbitration bodies.
