Sports Law
Nepal’s sports industry is growing, with more participation, professionalisation and investment in events, clubs and infrastructure. As the sector evolves, athletes, teams, associations and businesses need sound legal guidance on governance, contracts, commercial rights and dispute resolution. We offer services tailored to the sports ecosystem so clients can operate professionally within national and international frameworks.
Governance and Compliance
We advise athletes, clubs, academies and associations on registration, compliance and organisational governance, including forming sports entities, drafting constitutions, registering with the relevant authorities and meeting national regulations and international federation standards. We also advise on ethics codes, disciplinary rules and governance structures that support integrity, transparency and accountability.
Contracts
We prepare athlete contracts, coaching agreements, sponsorship deals, transfer arrangements, broadcasting rights agreements and commercial partnership contracts, making sure every party understands its rights and obligations and that agreements reflect fairness and industry best practice.
Intellectual Property and Commercial Rights
We help clients protect trademarks, branding, logos and media rights associated with clubs, events and athletes, guide event organisers on sponsorship assets, licensing and merchandise rights, and support digital content creators, esports professionals and media companies in securing and monetising their creative assets.
Dispute Resolution
We represent clients before disciplinary committees, courts, arbitration panels and regulatory bodies in matters involving player transfers, contractual violations, selection disputes, anti-doping proceedings and disciplinary sanctions, and help clubs and associations establish internal dispute mechanisms.
Sector Development and Policy
We advise government bodies, private investors and international partners on stadium and sports complex projects, grassroots programmes and high-performance initiatives, provide compliance audits and legal workshops, and contribute to the development of modern, athlete-centred sports policies and governance codes.
