IPL: Sporting franchise structures: the Indian Premier League
The Indian Premier League is arguably the biggest new sporting concept launched since the restructure of European football club competitions into the UEFA Champions League and UEFA Cup during the 1990s. Chris Walsh, a Solicitor with OnSide Law, examines various models of operating sports leagues, the genesis of the IPL and the key legal issues facing - and the commercial structure of - franchise-based sporting competitions.
