This study was conducted to examine the current operational state, necessity and importance, developmental plans for sport law education. In order to achieve the purpose of study, scholars from Korean Association of Sports and Entertainment Law and Korean Society for Sport Management were decided as a population and 102 scholars were sampled by convenient sampling method. A total of 52 surveys were used for data analysis. With the collected data, frequency analysis and cross-tabulation analysis were performed for verification using SPSSWIN Ver. 18. In conclusion, first, 69.4% of scholars did not open sport law class. The reasons for that were ‘existing professor oriented curriculum formation’ and ‘lack of will for sport law class open by existing professor.’ In spite of this reality, 94.4% of respondents answered that sport law class should be opened because sport related lawsuits have been increased and thus sport industry staffs should obtain knowledge about how legal issues are applied in performing various tasks. In terms of curriculum operation, the class of sport law may be opened once a year with 3 credit hours as a selective subject. The sport law can be taught by a person who majors sport law regardless of either law or sport in bachelor’s degree. The contents of sport law class should include contract law, risk management in sport facility, tort, sport agent, labor law, administrative law, and intellectual property law. Lastly, for the development of sport law, professors should make an effort to open sport law class, to foster younger scholars who major sport law, and to establish interdisciplinary system between law and sport study.
