Legal regulation of sports relations in Ukraine at the current stage

Abstract

The paper is devoted to the study of topical issues of sports law, which allow us to consider it as an industry that has signs of relative independence and is characterized by the complexity of norms. The domestic normative and legal framework for the regulation of sports relations is analyzed. The opinions of specific researchers regarding the prospects for the development of public administration of physical culture and sports, regarding views on the underdeveloped system of norms in this field and the problem of further adaptation of legislation to such changes are analyzed. Sports law is a fairly young branch of the Ukrainian legal system. The need for the development of this field is determined by the fact that sport, like any other sphere of social relations, needs qualified lawyers who understand its specifics. Legal regulation of relations in various spheres of social life has undergone drastic changes in connection with full-scale aggression. The introduction of martial law in Ukraine and the extension of the period of martial law made adjustments in the field of physical culture and sports. At the current stage, the formation of regulatory and legal support for the development of physical culture and sports in Ukraine continues, which is characterized by the legal regulation of relations through the adoption of legislative and regulatory documents, decisions of state bodies, and the development and implementation of target complex programs. However, the main problems related to the need for a quick response to political, economic and other socio-legal changes in the world and in Ukraine, taking into account the available opportunities for the implementation of state policy in the field of physical culture, need to be solved.
