Join us May 9 - 11 for the 2024 Sports Lawyers Association Annual Conference at the Baltimore Marriott Waterfront. Our 49th Annual Conference is designed around the theme "When Sports and Culture Collide." The world of Sports is an exciting area in which to work, study, and play, and we'll continue to meet and bring inspired people together in forums like our annual conference and Fall Symposium, to ensure that the Sports Lawyers Association remains on the cutting edge of our industry. Conference Committee Chair Maggy Carlyle, Vice Chair Arthur McAfee, and Consulting Chair Bobby Hacker, and the rest of the committee have put together an exciting and educational program, with the same amazing speakers and variety of topics that you have come to expect from the SLA. And of course, there will be many opportunities to re-engage and connect with each other in person.
