Abstract: With the rapid development of the global sports industry, legal disputes in the sports field are becoming increasingly common, highlighting the importance of effective dispute resolution mechanisms. The international sports arbitration system, particularly represented by the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) in Lausanne, Switzerland, has become a crucial platform for resolving sports-related disputes worldwide. This system, characterized by its independence, efficiency, and specialization, plays an irreplaceable role in protecting the legitimate rights of the parties, maintaining sports order, and promoting the modernization of sports governance. In contrast, China's sports legal system still lags behind in this area, with issues such as inadequate legal frameworks, lack of independent arbitration institutions, shortage of professional arbitrators, and weak enforceability of awards.
