Abstract
This is a review of the new book by Mitchell N. Berman and Richard D. Friedman, The Jurisprudence of Sport: Sports and Games as Legal Systems. The explicit premise of the book is that sports and competitive games are legal systems. Therefore, inquiries into their jurisprudential aspects prove highly beneficial, just as in every other area of law. The book is, in a sense, a study in comparative law. The authors do an excellent job creating an engaging experience for the reader with colorful hypotheticals, a wide array of real-life examples from sports, and modern issues such as COVID-19 and sports. This concise review provides a small sampling of the comparisons between sports rules and the law.
