Resolving disputes fairly and efficiently

SR was established in the wake of a landmark case involving the British Athletics Federation (BAF) and the international athlete Diane Modahl.

After two years of legal battles the athlete was fully exonerated and returned to competition. However the entire process led to the athlete becoming bankrupt and contributed to the BAF going into administration. In the aftermath of this pivotal case, SR was founded with the aim of resolving disputes fairly and efficiently, with no bias.

At Sport Resolutions, we know the importance of time and reputation for athletes. Hence we provide quick and accessible proceedings with the help of experienced sport dispute resolution experts who act as arbitrators. We have just over 300 individuals on the Sport Resolutions’ Panel of Arbitrators and Mediators which includes many of the top legal, financial, medical, safeguarding and sport administrator professionals working in sport.
