The workshop examined the current contractual practices and proposed a unified framework for drafting sports contracts. The goal is to establish a clear, consistent legal reference for all clubs, ensuring transparency and protecting the rights of both parties while avoiding inconsistencies or individual interpretations.
Fifteen participants took part in the workshop, including executive directors, professional managers, secretaries, and staff responsible for contracts. At the end of the session, the committee consolidated the agreed-upon points for submission to H.E. Issa Hilal Al Hazami, Chairman of the Sharjah Sports Council, for formal approval.
