SAMCO 2022 is a sports arbitration-based mooting competition, which serves as a platform to expose law students to the areas of sports law and real-life experience of conducting hearings before the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS). It also helps the students to gain a better understanding of dispute resolution and issues in the sports world.

Well done!
