Sports and Entertainment Law Society

From the Samford directory, Sep 7, 2026

Samford University’s Cumberland School of Law’s Sports & Entertainment Society (SELS) is dedicated to exploring the legal, business, and ethical issues that arise in the sports and entertainment industries. Through guest speakers and panels, SELS facilitates an ongoing dialogue among the legal community on issues such as contract law and negotiations, intellectual property, and social justice. In addition to its academic mission, SELS is committed to providing opportunities for members to network with professionals and other students working in and/or passionate about sports and entertainment law. The objectives of the society are to create contacts with influential individuals within the entertainment and sports law industries; to aid members in their pursuit of employment within the fields, and to introduce the legal issues that exist in entertainment and sports law.
