Governing bodies are frequently in the news and under pressure from their members, needing clear and specific legal advice. We have worked with the Professional Footballers’ Association for over 45 years and the George Davies Sports team now applies this expertise and insight to the creation and maintenance of effective constitutional documents and legal frameworks for a wide range of player governing bodies: 

  • English and Scottish PFAs
  • British Athletes Commission
  • Amateur Boxing Association
  • Ice Hockey Players’ Association.
Our Sports team also acts for the Institute of Professional Sport and the Professional Players Federation. We continue to be seen as a source of clear and knowledgeable advice that is specific to the changing commercial and legal environment facing players, clubs and sports organisations. 
George Davies have advised the Professional Footballers' Association for over 50 years...and they have continued to be our allies throughout the following years on all litigious matters internal and external. We very much value our relationship with them.
