Hackney Publications (HP), the nation’s leading publisher of sports law periodicals, has announced a partnership with the Sports Lawyers Association (SLA), a non-profit, international, professional organization whose goal is furthering the understanding, advancement and ethical practice of sports law, to produce the monthly newsletter for the SLA membership. Each issue of SLA Update will report on association news, future events, and member activities as well as special articles authored by members and/or HP staff. “We are constantly looking for ways to enhance the benefits to the membership,” said sports law attorney Layth Gafoor, the current President of SLA. “Partnering with a publications company like HP, which knows or industry so well, made a lot of sense. It will a great way to spread the word about the great things our members are doing as well as grow the organization in the United States and more broadly internationally.”
