Sports Law Q&A: Lord Sebastian Coe & Jonathan Taylor QC
Adam Lewis QC (Blackstone Chambers) and
Jonathan Taylor QC (Bird & Bird) are two of the world’s leading sports
lawyers. They are also the co-editors, and co-authors with many other leading
sports law practitioners, of what many in the industry consider to be the sports
law bible: ‘Sport:
Law and Practice’. The fourth edition of the book was
published by Bloomsbury 11 March 2021. To mark the launch, Jonathan Tayor QC spoke with Lord
Sebastian Coe (President, World Athletics), who wrote the foreword for the new book.
They discussed Lord Coe’s views on various
important issues for sports lawyers, such as the benefits of introducing best
practice into sports governance, why Lord Coe is happy to have championed the creation
of the ground-breaking Athletics Integrity Unit, and why World Athletics has taken
such a firm position in relation to eligibility to compete in the female
category (Semenya) or while using prostheses (Leeper).
