Ward Hadaway LLP's sports practice was bolstered by the arrival of Philip Edmondson, who leads the practice and regularly offers regulatory advice to sports clubs; he also advises national governing bodies on disciplinary matters and football agents on transfers and FIFA regulations. Further key names in the Leeds office are Owen Ormond, who joined the firm in January 2024 and frequently advises Premier League and Football League clubs on corporate recovery matters, and Dan Lyon, who acts on construction matters relating to sports stadiums and training spaces.
