ABSTRACT
Sports competitions are some of the oldest global activities and have been extensively organized and regulated on a global level. As a result, it is common to speak of global sports law. However, what is global about sports law and the extent of globalization of sports law’s globalization process is unclear. This article sheds new light on these questions by studying conversations about sports law on Twitter. It confirms the parallel existence of local and global sports law and explores what constitutes each. Finally, it uncovers geography-based differences in the level of globality.
