Our Mission
The Sports Lawyers Journal is a national legal journal edited by Tulane law students and published by the Sports Lawyers Association (SLA).
Every member of the SLA, currently over 1000 practicing lawyers, professors, law students, and other professionals, receives the publication annually. Since the Journal is composed of articles authored by American, Canadian, and European law students, it provides a unique view of sports issues and an unparalleled opportunity for students to have their works published and read!
First published in 1993, the Journal has enjoyed impressive success as the most widely read legal sports journal in the country. It is under the guidance of Professor Gabe Feldman.
