Hackney Publications, which is the leader in the sports law publishing business, created the blog to protect athletes as well as create a database of best practices for effective policies.
“Legal issues involving concussions and the policies being implemented to protect athletes, whether they are 7 years old or 47 years old, is a growing segment of sports law,” said Holt Hackney, the publisher and editor of Concussion Policy and the Law. “As the leader in the sports law publishing field, we feel a responsibility to track developments in this area of law. Our primary goal is to protect athletes. Our secondary goal is to help those entities that create a forum for athletics, whether a school district, a college, an association or a professional team, shield themselves from liability.”
Hackney Publications also publishes many other legal publications like Legal Issues in College Athletics, Sports Litigation Alert, The Journal of NCAA compliance, Legal Issues in High School Athletics, and Professional Sports and the law. In addition to legal publications, Hackney Publications and its partners also publish a variety of technology and business magazines, like Architecture and Governance and Today’s Wireless World.
