With the 2024 Olympics now at a close, some may wonder how competitors can leverage their athletic prowess. In the world of sports, intellectual property (IP) plays a crucial role behind the scenes, shaping business and branding for athletes and leagues. Trademarks protect logos, names, and catchphrases, helping entities like the NFL and UFC establish strong brand identities. Copyrights safeguard creative expressions like promotional videos and theme music, while licensing agreements allow the commercialization of athletes' names and likenesses for products and endorsements. Understanding and protecting IP is essential for maintaining the exclusivity and value of sports entities. Follow the link below to discover more about the importance of IP in sports and follow us all week for more legal insights into the world of athletics!

The game of netball has a long history, and with a long history comes a substantial reputation and some valuable intellectual property and associated rights. These rights reside not just in the game itself, but also in the teams, the associations behind the teams and the players themselves. This became readily apparent last year during a pay dispute between the Australian Netballers Players Association and Netball Australia. In our latest article, Wrays | Intellectual Property trade mark experts Marie Wong and Kate Howard take a look at this case and discuss what this means for individual players who may want to look more closely at what registrable intellectual property rights they can obtain and enforce. #wraysthinking #wraysforinnovators #trademarks

The idea of a 'trade mechanism' in the EuroLeague caught some attention lately. While there is no meaningful upside for EuroLeague Players Association (ELPA) to agree on 'trades' in EuroLeague, it should be added that in order to (in theory) create such a mechanism, this brings some unavoidable legal questions. Nearly impossible 'transfer' of player contracts cross-borders & cross-domestic leagues prevents the option of having such system in the first place. Player contracts would have to be terminated first and then (re)signed with a new team under the same conditions. This basically takes away the option of changing teams being a 'trade,' such as we know in the NBA. But, if we are talking about terminating player contracts and then signing with the new team - we actually already see that now, during the EuroLeague transfer window.
